Merissa (13521 KP) rated The Blood King (Inferno Rising #2) in Books
Aug 11, 2020
Abigail Owen has managed to write a story that focuses on the main characters whilst also giving you updates on those you already know, plus giving new information on characters yet to share their story. This is, without any doubt, Skylar and Ladon's book and yet we're kept up to date with Kasia and move forward with Angelika and Meira - whose books I CANNOT WAIT FOR!!!
The settings and individual characters remain absolutely brilliant. I loved how this story wove together Sky and Ladon, highlighting how good they are for each other even though neither of them expected it. The story moves along at a fair pace and the overall story arc is just getting more interesting!
A fun, hot, and gripping book that I have no hesitation in recommending.

Theirs is very much a will they/won't they story with plenty of action along the way. I am pleased to see Nikki and Logan still play a part in here although, obviously, not as much. Lucretia's secrets come out and she pays the price in more ways than one. Kurtis is okay but more often than not he will do or say something that annoyed me.
I do love the story development both in this story and the overall story arc. There are plenty of hints about stories to come which definitely leaves me wanting more. The characters continue to grow and adapt as times change.
This was a brilliant addition to the series that I thoroughly enjoyed. I absolutely recommend it and I look forward to whatever comes next.

For anybody who expected the crux of the series to be Din's quest to rejoin his culvert after being previously kicked out for revealing his face in public, that arc in particular is actually resolved with almost indecent haste within the first couple of episodes - there's also no mention of how Grogu is back with Din at all at the start of the first episode of the series (you need to watch the last couple of episodes
of The Book of Boba Fett for that), although I had thought it would be a good opportunity for the opening crawl that the movies have to explain his reappearance. There's also an episode here that feels like it has been lifted and ported over almost wholesale from Andor, set on Coruscant and delving into the bureacratic New Republic.
While I have since heard that season 4 is already planned (presumably after Ashoka), the series does also end in an episode that could wrap up the entire thing of that was not to be the case.
