Terrorist. Rebel. Traitor. One rash decision during the Shadow Trials led to unspeakable horrors that left innocents dead, friends injured and hunted by the Empire, and Maia Graystone imprisoned in the Tower at the Archduchess’s mercy. Unsure if Riser Thornbrook survived, Maia must find a way to battle the Empire from within its own walls and escape so she can fulfill the promise to her father and stop the asteroid. But when she breaks free and joins Nicolai's Rebel army, she discovers she’s been branded a traitor. With war between the Rebels and the Empire looming, old alliances shifting, and suspicion hanging over her head, she must fight in the Rebel Blood Courts—and win command—to regain their trust. Only problem is, first she has defeat the reigning champion, someone she knows all too well. Will Maia’s emotions lead to her defeat, or will she rise up and claim her victory?
This was such an anticipated read for me. With the way the second book left off, I knew I would be completely hooked on this series. Let me tell you something, this second book did not disappoint. It only made it so much worse.
The beginning was a bit slow for me, but I feel like that wasn't actually the writing it was just me being that reader that doesn't want it to end. So you know...you got to take it slow. That however didn't last long.
I absolutely loved all the characters in this book, new and old! You see that the growth in the authors writing and the character development. I've been really harsh on my book reviews lately and I cannot find anything to pick apart at all. Other than the fact that I had a few little temper-tantrums after a few interactions with certain characters. Luckily it was on my kindle or else I might have thrown the book.
