The Serpent and the Wings of Night by Carissa Broadbent
5.0
Oraya is a human in a world full of vampires, living in a constant state of fear. She has entered herself in the Kejari, a once-per-century tournament to the death where the victor is granted one wish by Nyaxia, the Mother of Vampires. Her hope is that winning the Kejari would be her path to becoming just as powerful, if not moreso, as the predators she is surrounded by in order to bring justice to the world that has been so cruel to her.
This book is an incredibly plot-heavy journey, and the characters are well-developed and deep enough to support all the action and chaos dripping from these pages.
The romance is an intense but verrrry slowwwww burn that is so satisfying. As in any great romantic fantasy, the stakes couldn't be higher, and the relationship between Oraya and the MMC is against all odds and deeply intense.
I enjoyed every moment of this book and I can't wait for the next book in the series. Highly recommend this one to anyone who enjoys this genre, though I wouldn't consider it a good starting point for anyone not used to fantasy. It's heavy in plot and world-building. As long as that is something you're comfortable with, don't hesitate on this one. It's worth the hype!
