H. M. Wolfe show the lengths a rebellion will go in order to right the wrong that Society has become:
As soon as I found out about this book, I knew I needed to get my hands on it to read it. And wow what a book it is. This book had me hooked from the beginning and a choke hold for most of the book. Now does this book really add anything new to the dystopian genre? No, it is very much men are in control women must be subservient to them and there is always those on the outside that want to rebel against them all. This does not mean that I did not enjoy the book, but I have read quite a few Dystopian books and the themes are the same so this made the book predictable at times.
Wolfe had me caring about each of the characters in a different way in this book and if you like Multiple POV’s this book will be one you’ll enjoy. Shadera and Greyson get the most POV in the book which makes sense as they are very much the focus of this book. Shadera is such a badass in this book, she is full of some many crazy skills that make her a great assassin but holding her tongue is not one of them, which gets her in to trouble quite a bit. Greyson was who I actually thought he would be before reading the book, so his character was not a surprise to me as it may have been to other
I didn't feel the relationship between Shadera and Grey. She was too much woman for him. I mean I feel the hate that they for each other and what they think the other has cost them I just didn’t feel the attraction they are supposed to feel. This also has an alternative for Shadea and that is Jamison Vine and for me I’m Team Jamison Fucking Vine all day. Jamison knows who he is and is not ashamed of it, plus he is willing to do anything for Shadera.
I was thinking this book was a solid 4 star read till the end and that totally bumped it up to 4.5 with where Wolfe takes the story as well as leaving so many huge cliffhangers at the end.
I think that this book lived up to the hype that it has been receiving. It is a true dystopia book, that is dark gritty and really grabs hold of you right at the beginning and not just the characters but the story and plot as well. I cannot wait to read the next book in this series.
