Kilani is a strong woman, a brilliant warrior, and relegated to organising functions at her father's request because women aren't allowed to join the army or have a mind of their own. Alrec is a Vampyire who has lost his whole family and swore to avenge them. These two meet in a meadow one evening when Alrec is there to raid the Slayer men. They fight and Alrec lets Kilani live. Sometime later, Kilani returns the favour, and mutual respect and trust begin to flourish between these two.
I loved this story! It was fast-paced but had enough attention to detail to keep me satisfied. The only trouble I have now is I want to read The End of Hatred again to see if they feature in that. The world-building is second to none, with plentiful descriptions and situations to keep everyone's attention.
If this had been the first book in the series I had read, it would definitely have pushed me to read more. Absolutely brilliant and definitely recommended by me.
