In this book we branch away from the Demonica books into the stories of the four horsemen of the apocalypse. They’re not evil really, not unless their seals are broken. Unfortunately, Pestilence’s has. Now his brothers and sister need to stop him from destroying the world.<\/p>\n
This is the story of Aries, whose seal ends up in the body of a human female, Cara, an animal healer who heals a hell hound early in the book. I liked Cara more than a few of the recent heroines because she wasn’t a cookie cutter. She was a bit softer, although she did end up getting the sassy attitude. I could have done without that. I’m starting to think that we’re confusing strength in women with either manly traits or else the ability to sass.<\/p>\n
Regardless… I like the new turn this series is taking. You can’t start here. I know it says “Lords of Deliverance #1, but really, start with the first Demonica book and work your way forward. This is a branch. You can probably follow what’s going on if you haven’t read the prequels, but why would you do that?<\/p>\n
Aries and Cara don’t entirely thwart the coming apocalypse in this book, so there is more to enjoy… I continue to recommend this series to fans of super-steamy (hard core) romantic fantasy.<\/p>\n
