Testament of Feats: Book of Sorrows (Book Two 2)Testament of Feats: Book of Sorrows by Kimm Jones
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This series continues to capture my imagination in the best possible way. It is epic on all fronts and is so very richly detailed. I’m transported into this new world much like Tolkien. It is full of fantasy and imagery and drama and feels so very tangible and real. I immediately dove into this second book and devoured every page. For me, the reader truly needs to read the first book before reading the second in the series as it does build off the first. Just a great book and series.

I devoured the first book of the series and seriously couldn’t wait to get this second installment in my hands. I am so excited to say that Gan DID NOT disappoint. This book was every bit of engaging and fantastic as it’s predecessor. Vivid imagery and detail. The main characters were extremely well written and felt very relatable. The storyline didn’t feel contrived but rather had a natural ebb and flow that allowed the characters to breathe. I truly loved this book and continue to love this series. I am excited to see what Gan might write next – I anticipate another epic edition to my library!

Wynne hits it out of the park with this one. I LOVE historical romance. When you throw in a rogue and an innocent and sprinkle it with Regency… I’m done for. And this book certainly lived up to all of my expectations. A classic storyline that doesn’t feel trite or over-told, I found it simply wonderful, rich with imagery and emotion. Loved every page and look forward to reading it again very soon!

Shaw doesn’t shy away from this latest book. Readers should take the summary and caution at face value. This will not appeal to all readers except to say that the characters are beautifully written.

This story stands alone well but the characters are even more greatly appreciated when read in the context of the whole series.

Opposites attract and sparks fly in this latest novella from Alexander in the Spicetopia series. Intended for mature readers, this is not meant for younger eyes. Take the caution seriously folks.
