Ratings and reviews

Exciting storyline however it repeats things too often throughout the book and the secrets kept weren't very intriguing. It could have been much better.

This book was so amazing. It was dark and wonderful and everything I hoped for. One of my top books of the year! Emilia is a fabulous character. She is feisty and Brave. Wrath is dark and dangerous. I need the next book right now.

Great story that really brought you into the world. I wish there was a bit more explanation of the time period and customs, but that won't matter in the next book anyway. I wish the book were longer, but I say that about every book, so it doesn't matter. All over a good read, 10/q0 recommend.
