There is a brooding sense of unease with this book that just chills me. If dark fantasy was on Netflix or HBO or Hulu, this would be it. It’s BRILLIANT. I can’t get enough of these characters. Even Nero, who is just awful, has this addicting quality about him. It’s one of those stories where you’re wincing at what will come next, but can’t look away. Absolutely BRILLIANT. Can’t wait for part 3!
Yet another great installment in The Reign of Blood series, a tale of life between vampires and elves and the struggles they endure. The characters in these books are well developed and although he is essentially ‘the bad guy’ I can’t help but fall a little more for Nero each time I meet him between the pages. He does everything he can to retain control of his city, he has to be the ultimate politician whilst keeping a firm lid on his emotions, to both keep the peace – and his head. Azalea I feel will be his salvation and in this book she is once again torn between her feelings for Nero and her ultimate goal, to be free. Miria is another confused and twisted soul and she makes some pretty dire choices in this book and throughout the series so far. Unlike Nero she allows her emotions to control her and that leads to her making some pretty disastrous decisions.
This is yet another well crafted book with great plot development and world building. The author leads us on a twisted path with many dark moments that are broken up with some romantic and heartwarming scenes that lead me to believe Nero can be redeemed and maybe, just maybe choose Azalea to be his soulmate. The question is, does she truly want him?
I would recommend this book to any fan of paranormal and fantasy fiction. This is not a standalone, to fully understand the plot you will need to read the previous book Blood Bound and even Blood King as that will help you understand Nero and how he came to be as he is.

The story of about Azalea and Miria and what happens in Terra Nocturne as they both try to survive. It was full of action, danger, betrayal, and fighting to survive. The characters were amazing and made you root for them, both good and bad. It caught my attention and kept me reading to the end to see what would happen next and what trouble or situation would find themselves in next. Made you feel like you were there. Just not the typical vampire city or story.
