The book where I truly may reiterate please be mindful of the content and trigger warning associated. This books goes into so triggering topic and is pretty graphic in its depictions. 

the darkest book yet. This books foes so well on building more on many of the sides characters in this series and really builds on Neil’s relationship with the foxes out side of just the monsters. The Raven King also does a lot to build on Kevin and Andrew as characters separate from Neil. We get a deeper look into Kevin’s past and a idea of what his time with the Raven would have looked like, and we get a very graphic look into Andrew past and how they’ve formed him into the trouble person Neil meets. 

It’s dark, gripping, a difficult read at times, but overall extremely enjoyable.

doy 5 porque no ha habido beso.
Me encanta que Neil se este haciendo a la realidad de que tiene una familia y que todos se esten dando cuenta de que, efectivamente son familia. Que vayan conociendose y curandose juntos. Les quiero mucho, a todos y tengo ganas de que le den de hostias a riko y a su tio. 
La escena de accion de gracias es sin duda de las escenas mas duras que he leido, el punto de vista de Neil es aterrador y es asi como lo hace llegar. A pesar de que no me gusta como han querido llevar algunos temas, esa escena es muy cruda pero necesaria para el punto de la trama. 
Espero leer pronto a Andrew y al equipo de vuelta. 🖤

  • My review is for all three books
  • The series is wonderful yet Sakavic found a way to ruin it every time it began to shine. From the unneeded
    sex
    scenes-which frankly felt forced and were included for the sake of fanservice, entire lulls in between rushed arcs, to the edgy, dramatic, and repetitive situations all come off as above average quality Wattpad mafia fanfics. That being said Sakavic still had me wanting to find out what happened to the characters despite my aversion to sport themed content normally. Finally, the ending felt entirely too rushed and highlighted how Sakavic uses trauma as a romance plot rather than the seriousness it should have been dealt with.
