Publisher's Summary
The stunning sequel to instant New York Times best seller Wicked Saints
Nadya doesn’t trust her magic anymore. Serefin is fighting off a voice in his head that doesn’t belong to him. Malachiasz is at war with who - and what - he’s become.
As their group is continually torn apart, the girl, the prince, and the monster find their fates irrevocably intertwined. Their paths are being orchestrated by someone...or something. The voices that Serefin hears in the darkness, the ones that Nadya believes are her gods, the ones that Malachiasz is desperate to meet - those voices want a stake in the world, and they refuse to stay quiet any longer.
In her dramatic follow-up to Wicked Saints, the first book in her Something Dark and Holy trilogy, Emily A. Duncan paints a Gothic, icy world where shadows whisper, and no one is who they seem, with a shocking ending that will leave you breathless.

Probably won’t finish the series
Book 1 was better. Book 2 took me a while to finish. In part because I wasn’t enjoying it that much and wasn’t compelled to finish. But also because I’d often re-listen to parts wondering if I’d missed something in the story then realize, no, it was just a plot hole. I didn’t have to re-listen to the many many repetitive descriptions of everything. I feel like the same 10 things were described in the same words over and over and this definitely contributed to difficulties with staying focused on the audiobook.
Biggest disappointment for me was that the characters felt so flat. Very little development for any of them, especially considering this was the second book of the series. Nadya is still annoyingly naive and forever ruminating about the same things. Serafin is tired and seems to gave no purpose in the second half of this book. Unless to add gore and blood, not that there is a shortage of either. M is tired and angry. Somehow he is still flat even with the most interesting backstory and personal journey in the book. And then there are the 4 or 5 secondary characters that in all this time still seem to have no purpose either. Even when they get their own chapters, their storyline isn’t developed any further. They didn’t move the plot along or really do anything but join along for a long hike in a creepy forest.
Felt long, repetitive and not worth the energy to keep track of the storyline. Especially after the author has made bigoted comments on social media, I have even less motivation to bother with book 3 and will go find a more captivating, better written, series instead.

Perfection!
I love these messy, flawed, terrible and heartbreaking characters and the unique gothic world they live in.
