Descripción

In a world woven with intrigue and desire, the story unfolds under the watchful gaze of Kushiel, the god of punishment and desire. The protagonist embarks on a haunting journey, navigating the treacherous waters of political machinations and personal awakenings. As she delves deeper into the complexities of love and duty, the lines between devotion and sacrifice blur, challenging her understanding of loyalty and freedom.

Amidst the backdrop of a richly imagined society, filled with vibrant characters and lush landscapes, themes of power and redemption surface. Her choices become double-edged swords, each path revealing the intertwined fates of allies and adversaries alike. With every encounter, the protagonist is forced to confront her own identity, and the weight of her heritage becomes both a blessing and a curse.

As the narrative unfolds, readers are drawn into a realm where passion fuels ambition, and the quest for truth often leads to unexpected revelations. The tension builds, enticing them to question not only the nature of love but also the very fabric of the world around her, leaving them eager for what awaits in her next heart-stirring chapter.

4 stars, but I did like this a tiny bit less than [b:Kushiel's Dart|153008|Kushiel's Dart (Phèdre's Trilogy, #1)|Jacqueline Carey|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1328168291l/153008._SY75_.jpg|2990010].I continue to have a good time reading about Phèdre running around the world trying to find Melisande and ruin her plans for world domination. Phèdre does end up in some truly harrowing ordeals, but most of the time she's so competent at being who she is, she's able to talk herself out of it or have sex to get out of it. After a while though, I was itching to get her reunited with Jocelin especially as they’re separated for a pretty big chunk of the book. I do wish we got his perspective of his experience while Phèdre goes missing, I had a hard time believing their conflict affecting their relationship just disappeared after they're reunited. Absence makes the heart go fonder and everything but I'm hoping this gets touched on in the next book.Once again, I was up until 4am reading this and I can't wait to see if I get any sleep when I get to the last book of the trilogy.
