Armistice by Lara Elena Donnelly
5.0
I have been waiting for this book to arrive, and was definitely not disappointed.
I love Aristide so much, but definitely missed Cyril's presence. I think that was probably the whole point, that we miss Cyril as much as Ari does. I adore Cordelia, stripper turned guerrilla leader, in her new, even-more-gritty-than-before personality. And diplomat Lillian, Cyril's younger sister, is a Mama Bear of formidable proportion.
The bulk of this book is set in a sultry, middle-eastern style climate as even more intrigue plays out against this backdrop. It's fantastic. It doesn't have the decadent Berlin-feeling atmosphere Amberlough had, more of a Casablanca-ish feel here. Just waiting for the Ospies to get theirs. Can't wait for the next one!
