Iztac is half a god now, his powers empowered by the embers of two dead suns, and the time of reckoning approaches. His army now marches against the rival empire of the Sapa, who wield magic and power that may help him finally overthrow his vampire overlords. Unfortunately, he must now contend with Sugey, the Bird of War, whose bloodthirst knows no bounds nor restraint.
But Iztac is done taking orders from his tormentors.
Rebellion is finally at hand...
Book 4 in the action-packed BLOOD & FUR Progression Fantasy saga with a unique spin from Maxime J. Durand, bestselling author of Vainqueur the Dragon, The Perfect Run, and Apocalypse Tamer.
Maxime Durand does it again! I have greatly enjoyed this series. It's heavy, but a story about the throes of oppression and the cycles of systematic and familial abuse demands the weight. While this makes for a difficult read at times, I appreciate the cathartic story of the weakest elements of humanity. Rarely does a book capture trauma so well, from the gut responses to the emotional processing. I can confidently say that I finished the book more at peace with my demons than at the start of the series, for which I am grateful.
