Blood & Steel
by Helen Scheuerer
adventurous
medium-paced
It took me forever to get through this. It’s been a while since I’ve read a book over 500 pages and I think it showed when I started this one. It was so slow to develop. I respected Thea’s determination but I didn’t connect to her character so it really took time to feel invested. Wilder also didn’t wow me. He just came across as a bit bland. He was angry and a loner and that’s all I knew. It was only once Thea began her training I truly felt invested and even that took time.
In the end, this was a good story but it did feel unnecessarily long. Like a lot of the world billing and things that happened could have been condensed down. It was too much repetition at the beginning that had me questioning if I really wanted to keep reading. I am intrigued and might finish the series since it’s on KU.
