Warning: The following review will contain spoilers for These Violent Delights, Our Violent Ends, and Foul Lady Fortune
Please be sure to read this after Foul Lady Fortune as it will be relevant in Foul Heart Huntsman.
Last Violent Call follows Roma and Juliette in A Foul Thing are living in marital bliss. When they encounter a strange girl who seems to have an uncanny ability and a tie to their past, they are pulled back into the world of what is happening in Shanghai. In This Foul Murder we follow Benedikt and Marshall who are happily married and are on a mission to help Roma and Juliette when the train they are riding on has a sudden murder occur. They are pulled into the investigation as they try to make it to their destination.
I LOVE CHLOE GONG'S WRITING SO MUCH! Okay calming down now. I adore Chloe's stories and her story telling so, so much. She writes such interesting stories that pull you in from the very beginning. My favorite thing about this was seeing characters from the previous series in this and seeing them so grown up.
I loved all their relationships so much. Roma and Juliette have such a sweet relationship and I love how much they love each other. The same goes for Benedikt and Marshall. Though these are shorter stories, Chloe still manages to make us see how much they love each other. I love the overall stories but I also love the small moments where we see the characters love for each other. I adored this and I am so excited to see how these stories are going to play out in Foul Heart Huntsman.
I love this book so much and I would HIGHLY recommend picking this up after Foul Lady Fortune as it shall play into Foul Heart Huntsman. I am so excited to read more Chloe Gong in the future!
