kitano 's review for:
A Vow So Bold and Deadly
by Brigid Kemmerer
Oh finally after years, I finally finished this series.
A Vow So Bold and Deadly is the final book of A Curse So Dark and Lonely series. The third book following our four main characters: Harper, Rhen, Grey, and Lia Mara. The story continues from Grey who finally going to claim his throne to Emberfall. He given Rhen 60 days to prepare for the war, or maybe yielding before that.
Lia Mara is now the queen and she wanted to rule without violence, she didn't want to be like Karis Luran, her mother but not everyone is used with this system. Even worse, there's a faction created of those who are against magic, especially that now Syhl Shallow has Grey on their side. Meanwhile Grey, trying his best to fit in, to prove that he's on their side, to pleased all of Syhl Shallow for giving him place. Some people didn't believe in him, some people thought he's going to take the throne from Lia Mara and more.
Harper, finally know that Lilith still alive and threatening Rhen once again. Lilith is as cruel as ever but somehow, I kinda sympathy her for doing revenge after her beings was not get any mercy by both Syhl Shallow and even killed by Emberfall. Meanwhile Rhen, trying his best to get any hope to win the war against Grey but lots of people didn't see him as the rightful king anymore.
How do I say about this book.., Well, on the second book, AHSFAB, I was growing more sympathy to Grey while still having some for Rhen even though I can finally see how he can be as cruel as Karis Luran. But Grey in this book is very... disappointing. He's doing so much so he can pleased all people in Syhl Shallow so they can accept him, to can finally see that he's on their side. Grey on ACSDAL was so loyal, and it was his best trait. In this book he's completely on the other side, willing to kill Rhen if he needed to, even tho he said that he didn't want to have a war with him but still he planning one. It feels like weird to read his part, how he called Syhl Shallow's army as his. I don't really hate him but I totally disliking him in this book. Especially that he's not commander anymore, he can say anything without coating them with Rhen, with Harper, and we can see his true side which sadly, very disappointing.
I like the other characters, Harper, Rhen, Lia Mara. But Grey,, also Jake as well is somehow.. I don't know how to put it. Grey who siding with Syhl Shallow and ready to attack Rhen, Jake who suddenly has much loyalty to Grey like, I don't know what's the word but they kinda made me irritated. Of course I understand why they are being like that, why Grey is doing much for Syhl Shallow, how he's truly didn't actually want to attack Rhen, how he still thinking about Rhen, especially knowing that Rhen is his brother but still... Or maybe it's because I like Rhen better so yeah I don't know what it is.
The ending is okay, pretty nice, pretty good. I don't want to be that person but I thought there would be more gruesome thing that I surprised some characters were still alive, haha but yeah good thing though. It still has some question left of course but yeah, quite nice ending.
