I've had the good fortune of being one of the few to actually receive an ARC of this book. It took me three days to finish it and every second of stress and worry for the fate of the Devils was worth it.
City of Smoke and Brimstone was perhaps the most 'high stakes' book in the series. Your favourites were split into groups and didn't know whether the others were alive or not, had me wanting to pull my hair out.
If it wasn't clear to readers before, it will become clear in this book that none of them, NONE OF THEM would survive without Tanner. He may not have the combat experience, that the other Devils do, but the man is a genius and is necessary for all of their survival.
Darien and Loren - The way this man loves his woman to the point of tying his life to hers.. it was emotional. I was infuriated upon finding out what he did to get Singer back and the extent to which he went.. but I also understand it. But please that cannot be how it ends for him. For them both.
Ivy and Jack - I'm glad we get a bit more insight into their relationship. To see Jack so broken without Ivy, to see him become a shell of himself while her fate was unknown.. man, I felt for him.
Travis and Jewels - They're too cute. Kayla did an amazing job of portraying a budding relationship at a time of so much pain, confusion and turmoil. They didn't have a moments rest since they started hanging out.. but they still found a way to make it work.
Max and Dallas - love them. They grew stronger as a couple and as individuals. Max is a good leader and while his fight with Darien made me uncomfortable, I'm glad Max knew that Darien wouldn't really do what he said he'd do. They're brother. Family. They always will be. And Dallas deciding to take her life into her hands, amazing. So happy for her!
Tanner Atlas - the man he is. I love him. He's my man, he always will be.
Malakai Delaney needs to grow up. The entire book had me wanting to knee him in the balls.
I may come back to edit this review in the next few days. These are just my immediate thoughts.
Overall, loved it, loved reading it.
Highly recommend to everyone!
