Fate Demands Sacrifice is book 2 in the Sirians series, and what a book 2 it was!
We continued to follow Reva on her journey of self discovery, coming into her powers, and even dipped our toes into a love triangle. I really enjoyed this book, I love all the characters and how they interact, the world building, and how magic is used.
The use of light magic and dark magic in the Sirians series reminds me a bit of wizards in Harry Potter, and the obscurials they can become if their magic is suppressed. It’s really intriguing and interesting, and I am very curious to see book 3 unfold. I loved reading about Reva’s magic training and interactions with Lightning, and then her discovery about the deep wells of her power.
Overall, Reva is such a great FMC and I am really excited to see what she does next. Elly continues to be a favorite of mine, she is SUCH a good friend to Reva and the rest of the gang. Pax was a fun character to learn more about, which is interesting because I hate him passionately in book 1. Fin continues to be our sweet cinnamon roll mmc, and we love him but we know Reva is destined for more and for full acceptance from her partner. Queue Tariq swaggering in… my oh my do we love Tariq in all his glory. And apparently Reva agrees with me, which turns into quite the delicious few scenes, and many heart melting conversations.
The love triangle was good but also sad? I felt like Fin clearly wasn’t meant for her, and he was fantasizing about what she could have been, but not seeing the real her… but it was sad for me because he still kept going for it and hoping for the best when clearly the other person in the triangle was much more suited to be her equal.
Lastly, I want to talk about Clint. I genuinely am so invested in him as a character and I love him so much. The highlight of the book was not the spice (shocker for me, I know), but rather the scenes with Clint. I have so much love for this fictional teenage boy full of life despite his hardships.
This is a great indie read! I definitely recommend.
