Overall - a captivating read!
Revisado: 01-26-24
Cons: I didn’t like the long pauses between chapters. The story seemed to move slowly at times with spurts fast paced action. The demons morphing into tangible flesh seemed a bit implausible - though that may be explained in the rest of the series.
Pros: Great world building. The characters were likable; I found myself enjoying their growing up stages, finding themselves and how they rivaled in who they became. Despite the (sometimes) slow pace - the reader skillfully held my attention and I found it hard to put down when I should have been sleeping!

Historia
Everyone expected Violet Sorrengail to die during her first year at Basgiath War College-Violet included. But Threshing was only the first impossible test meant to weed out the weak-willed, the unworthy, and the unlucky. Now the real training begins, and Violet’s already wondering how she’ll get through. It’s not just that it’s grueling and maliciously brutal, or even that it’s designed to stretch the riders’ capacity for pain beyond endurance. It’s the new vice commandant, who’s made it his personal mission to teach Violet exactly how powerless she is–unless she betrays the man she loves.

I love the first book, but didn’t like the relationship between Violet and her mother. The second book explained that relationship a bit more and made more sense to me. I thoroughly enjoyed the first two books in the series, can’t wait for the Prime TV series to air and for the third book.

Historia
Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them.

Loved every minute of this story! It’s been a long time since a book has kept me awake until 5am because I just couldn’t put it down! Would like to see the author explore the relationship between Violet and her mother and bit more. This part of the story didn’t make much sense to me. Why would a mother be so hateful towards her daughter? Perhaps this will be addressed in the second book(s).

This is a slow burn, finding one’s self, political and trendy sort of book. The narrator was fantastic and it was a pleasure to listen to her.

Historia
Everything Poppy has ever believed in is a lie, including the man she was falling in love with. Thrust among those who see her as a symbol of a monstrous kingdom, she barely knows who she is without the veil of the Maiden. But what she does know is that nothing is as dangerous to her as him. The Dark One. The Prince of Atlantia. He wants her to fight him, and that’s one order she’s more than happy to obey. He may have taken her, but he will never have her.

Series Review
Revisado: 02-20-23
Reference for this review: I usually listen to around a hundred books a year. Favorite author - Brandon Sanderson.
Positive: Stina Nielsen was an excellent narrator of the Ash and Blood series. I would be interested in listening to other books narrated by her.
Negative: The writing style seems YA, but the sex makes it an adult series. The premise for the series was actually pretty creative. The story could have stood on its own two legs without such an extreme amount of sex! It’s like finding a hair in your food at a restaurant - the sex just spoiled the whole story.

Historia
Chosen from birth to usher in a new era, Poppy’s life has never been her own. The life of the Maiden is solitary. Never to be touched. Never to be looked upon. Never to be spoken to. Never to experience pleasure. Waiting for the day of her Ascension, she would rather be with the guards, fighting back the evil that took her family, than preparing to be found worthy by the gods. But the choice has never been hers.

Casteel Da’Neer knows all too well that very few are as cunning or vicious as the Blood Queen, but no one, not even him, could’ve prepared for the staggering revelations. The magnitude of what the Blood Queen has done is almost unthinkable.
