Good but a pretty different vibe from the first one. Not sure where it's going. I know this is a prequel back story to a character in another series. I think reading that first might have helped with the direction.

Great book
I am enjoying the entire series. The plot is well thought out, the characters well developed and the storytelling is great. I recommend this book (and series) to any who loves a feel good read

Hurricane is not what I expected it to be.
The second book in the Street Rats of Aramoor takes us to a cutthroat environment where tribes of children exist. It is place governed by fear and the need to survive. Abandonment turned children brutal and unforgiving. It's everything that Ayrion's Upakan upbringing goes against.
Away from home and with no one to turn to, Ayrion begins to question his identity as he struggles to fit in to his new world. Even as a would-be assassin there's still a deep kindness to Ayrion that arises many times. Perhaps that is the curse his best friend keeps referring to!
I love Ayrion and Reevie's relationship. Their banter brings the much needed humour to the plot, and has left me adoring the duo.
Even though the romance in the book wasn't that highlighted, I felt it would have worked better to do without it because any narrative containing it felt awkward and pushed.
Hurricane showed a development in Ayrion's character from how he has come to shape his own beliefs, his interaction with others, and even the decision he comes to make in the end.
I received an e-ARC at no cost from the author in exchange for an honest review. Follow me at Camillea Reads and on IG: biblio.khaleesi for more bookish adventures.
