This book brought me out of a reading slump and invigorated my soul for more. I cannot wait for book 3 and this will hands down be in my top series ever... so good. I loved the Faithful and the Fallen series, but I will admit on the companion series that I hated Riv so much that I had ended up putting the Blood Sworn Saga on the back burner. I finally decided I'd read book 1 and then when it was announced book 3 would come out I'd read book 2; but I couldn't help it and totally read them back to back.

I loved all the POVs in both of these books. I truly love John Gwynne's writing style, his character development, and his battle scenes... I also very much love how he does animal (or weird creature) companions. Honestly I wish more books I read had this aspect and did it as good as him. (Craft.. cough..cough)

I will add that I do in a way wish I'd have waited until the 3rd book was coming out as we were left on a total cliffhanger in this book!! But I'm also glad I didn't wait as I needed this in my life right now. But DAMN you John!! It made me feel like if I had read Ruin and book 4 hadn't been released yet lol.. way to pull on the heart strings ☹️
