I didn’t really enjoy this one as much as I did Vicious, some of the time it felt like a slog to read and didn’t feel like there was much of a plot? Little disappointed as I loved Vicious a lot. Also, is there meant to be a sequel?

jwells's review against another edition
I finished Vengeful thinking about Brandon Sanderson's sliding scales of protagonists: likeability, competence, and proactivity. He says that if you are sliding one of them down, you can compensate by sliding the others up. If all of them are low, readers lose interest in your protagonist. Victor is extremely high on proactivity. I also thought, there might be another scale for vulnerability: both Victor and Eli discover in this book that they are far from invulnerable, in spite of their superpowers, and that also makes them more sympathetic and interesting as protagonists.
Graphic: Death, Torture, and Medical trauma
As in the first book, some deaths that are temporary, and others that are permanent._persephone's review against another edition
