The final book of the series, Rowena is fighting for her life. Sanguina is crumbling around her. Her Emperor has died. She is fighting an infection that is turning her into a Pale. She hasn’t told Vincenzo about this. She risks losing him. She is battling conspiracy theories. Life has basically turned to crap. Can she save Sanguina? Can she right the wrongs? I found the story pretty interesting. I came into the series at book 5 so I did miss a bit of the back story. I will suggest you start at the beginning of the series. I will going back and reading from book 1. Rowena is pretty badass. Though she keeps secrets, she’s trying to protect her friends and her people. She faces some uphill battle. I am glad that she has Vincenzo by her side for most of this. She has some very hard decisions. I found it well-written. The use of the emperor’s in the different eras was epic. This gave a classic feel to a modern world. It was very dytopian because it was out of place but oddly, not. The characters felt very classic also with the mixture of modern, such as the guy yelling at Rowena as he came into the studio. The ending gave it a beautiful closure. Oddly enough, it fit within the story. This story would reach out to lovers of several types of stories. I recommend it to mystery lovers and fantasy/scifi lovers.… (más)
