A review by fictionalbookwyrm
Diamond City by Astrid Cole
4.0
After years of war to unite all the districts, Sage just wants peace and quite life. Being with her neices and running a pizza shop has been her life for quite some years now, but she is living with a secret. Being part of the warrior race and her role in the war didn’t let her stay hidden for long.
When she is sold off to the royal family which then blackmails her to go after the notorious revel warlord, she learns that she is on the wrong side of the war.
She must choose a side, between a charming warlord and a naive prince she will have her loyalties split. While all she wants is to protect the city and run her pizzeria, everyone wants to use her for her cells that came from the warrior race.
Sage was a badass character with vulnerable side. She had the strength like no one but also a soft spot for the city. She has conflicting thoughts all the time, makes her more like a normal person that adapts according to their surroundings.
Daiman on the other hand is phenomenal. I couldn’t decide if I trust him till the end of the book. He was witty and finny with gorgeous looks. He was such an interesting character that I couldn’t wait to learn about him same as Sage.
I loved both books. The starting felt like I was rushed into a story without any background information but then as I read further the layers of the story begun unfolding. The characters have depth, development and mind of their own. I was not able to decide who is good or bad.
