lskywalker918 's review for:
Wings of Snow
by Krista Street
Good, but not as good as the previous two.
The stakes were high at the end of Book 2. Ilyra and her sister were forced to run. The arc where they encountered Drachul was probably the best part of the book and things went downhill after. The story moved a bit too fast after this as things were happening only because the characters needed to do something within these 4 weeks before Norivun had to marry.
Novirun reunited with her almost within a day. Drachul soon became the next baddie and disappeared to do bad guy stuff. Well since we didn't know what to do with him at the moment, let's go figure out this orem business. And since we had time to kill, let's complete the mate bond thing. Since we had to wait for our contract to return with answers, let's go kill Drachul (the fight was pretty anticlimactic, I might add). The Drachul arc could have been developed better and not used as a mere filler to fill the time.
Oh, and now that we figured out what was going on with the orem, we would return to the castle for the final confrontation.
This book suffered from the sequel syndrome where things happened just to fill the time. I wanted to stop reading during the "waiting around" period, but I was now committed to the characters and their story and had to stay to find out where they ended up.
The smut was good though. Probably the only positive in this particular book. But I was hoping for more plot than smut (which was what we got in the previous two books!)
Spice scale (as defined by Mysterious Galaxy):
