In the Midst of Omens (The Legacy of Gilgamesh Series) by Nicole Bailey – Review by Shannen Kern

In the Midst of Omens by Nicole Bailey
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I had previously read one other book by this author and enjoyed it so much that I grabbed this one up without a second thought. The cover is gorgeously intriguing which pulled me in even further. By the time I read the synopsis I was already making room for it on my shelf. The author did an astounding job of weaving the historical world perfectly with romantic fantasy, which I feel is an incredibly difficult task. I appreciate the fact that they included content warnings at the beginning so that no one is caught off guard. Something else that I absolutely love is that they included not only a glossary but a map to make it a little easier imagining the world as they wrote it. Even if you aren’t familiar with The Epic of Gilgamesh, this book will still blow you away. It starts off a little slow but definitely speeds up into more action and spice. I highly recommend picking up this first book The Legacy of Gilgamesh series because I have a feeling the second book is going to be a knockout!
