A review by cobaltbookshelf
Empire of Shadows by Jacquelyn Benson

3.0

This book captivated me from the start. Benson’s descriptive story telling kept me hooked until the very end. It pieced together so many cool details from the era and setting, and combined with well-rounded characters. Ellie and Adam are amazing, their banter was great and enjoyed watching their relationship grow.
This a fun historical fiction adventure that is on point with The Mummy vibes! This book is the first in a series, so I cannot wait to next one!
