The Flame Never Dies by Rachel Vincent
3.0
So where to start with this book. This book has my main buzz word: DEMONS
Granted in this story the Demons are still evil, but regardless, I love books that bring demon folklore and ideas into them. For me this sequel and conclusion to the duology was not as strong as the first. The first book drew me in with the amazing world building and intricacies of the world. I fell in love with Nina, Finn, and their motley group of misfit exorcists. I loved seeing more of the group together all sticking up for each other.
That being said, this book to me seemed more rushed and not as exciting as the first. I didn’t feel the same pull as I did with the first. However, there were still plot points I did not see coming. And with that came certain aspects that were beyond obvious from the start...
And then that ending! Who ends a duology like that? While there was some resolution, it was not nearly enough for me. There definitely is no need for another book, but i needed a chapter or two more to tie everything up. You cannot just leave the bombshell of an epilogue like was done and expect me to be okay with that.
