Hey guys,
it's been awhile since I've posted anything on the blog, let alone a book review. The truth is I didn't really feel like writing it particularly for this book. It's the sixth one in the Black Dagger Brotherhood series and it was supposed to be about Phury and Cormia. The reason I was postponing the writing of this post was mainly because I feel like I'm repeating myself. That's why the review is going to be a brief one.
GoodReads summary:
In this "frighteningly addictive" paranormal romance saga there's a war raging between vampires and their slayers. Here are the stories of a secret band of brothers like no other—six vampire warriors, defenders of their race. And now a dutiful twin must choose between two lives...
Fiercely loyal to the Black Dagger Brotherhood, Phury has sacrificed himself for the good of the race, becoming the male responsible for keeping the Brotherhood's bloodlines alive. As Primale of the Chosen, he is obligated to father the sons and daughters who will ensure that the traditions of the race survive, and that there are warriors to fight those who want all vampires extinguished.
As his first mate, the Chosen Cormia wants to win not only his body, but his heart for herself. She is drawn to the noble responsibility behind the emotionally scarred male. But Phury has never allowed himself to know pleasure or joy. As the war with the Lessening Society grows grim, tragedy looms over the Brotherhood's mansion, and Phury must decide between duty and love....
My opinion:
No.
This word basically sums up everything about this book. It was a let down. I don't want to be negative here but there isn't much positive in it. The biggest problem was that it seems like Ward didn't know what exactly to do with Phury and Cormia's story and what we're left with is what feels like a short story. Because the book itself may be 534 pages but most of it is about other characters and their own story lines. Phury and Cormia are about 30% of the book. Moreover, how they fell in love is beyond me. Everything about them felt forced and unreal. Phury didn't even talk to her most of the time. Apparently I've forgotten much about the series because I don't remember it spiraling so progressively with each book. And I think I'm going to take a break from the series for a while.
