Vespertine by Margaret Rogerson
5.0
Full Body Chills
Quite simply a stellar book. The Joan of Arc meets Venom logline isn't fooling around. An absolutely thrilling adventure with unforgettable leads: the Revenant and Artemisia. The ideas and burdens explored are hefty ones, but Rogerson delivers one heck of a story. This is one I will be rereading. Could easily work as a standalone but I will inhale the sequel. The lack of typical romance/sexy feelings is a huge PRO for the story. The emotional bonds and relationships and lingering somethings are much more powerful as a result
