Tired of female leads that are either clueless, broken, or otherwise inferior? Want one that's strong, independent, and anything but angelic?
Victory may be hard to love, but she tells it like it is and doesn't take guff from anybody. Being one of the most powerful people on her planet naturally brings about unwanted fame, but she uses her reputation for savagery and violence to keep everyone at bay. That is until circumstances force her to get to know Kreid better than she ever planned.
Kreid has decided to overthrow Dedrick, the sadistic ruler of Hentburn, and he needs Victory’s help to make it happen. Even though she refuses to get involved in his scheme, the more time she spends around him, the more torn she becomes.
Fortunately, due to the experiments of her genius best friend Penelope, another man has entered her life. Nate makes for a delightful distraction to the frustrations she suffers from dealing with Kreid. Will Nate end up stealing her heart or is he just what it takes to make Kreid realize what he is missing.
It was an alright read. It kind of felt like a first draft of a book and at times felt like it dragged on. I liked it enough to want to know what happens in the second book but I don’t think enough to read it myself. I really enjoyed learning about this world and the main character showed growth by the end of the book.
I won a copy of this book and I should've known just from the cover that it was going to be absolute crap. The sketch looks like something a seventh grader would draw. The writing is also intensely juvenile.
Absolutely no world building. The author has made up words for different creatures, weapons, etc. without any description of what those things look like.
The amount of misspellings and typos was incredibly distracting. I've read fanfiction better than this.
We learn absolutely nothing about these characters, other than that the FMC is strong. I felt zero attachment to the individuals, and there were absolutely no stakes that I gave a shit about.
I don't think I've ever given a book one star in my entire life. This was truly painful, and the only reason I finished it was because I often fall victim to the sunken cost fallacy.
TLDR: terrible world building, meandering plot that makes no sense, characters you won't care about, and was clearly never proofread
Fantastic, well-paced read with a darkly biting, funny, and truly powerful protagonist! Every author who writes a strong female character should read this book to see exactly how it's done, you'll fall in love with her point of view, her voice, and the way she faces her problems, both those in the world around her and those that she creates for herself. Highly recommended, give this one a chance!
