Description

The #1 New York Times bestselling romantasy series continues with more drama, higher stakes, and deadly consequences.

Duty. Blood. Honor. Power.

 Saeris Fane doesn’t want power. The very last thing she needs is her name whispered on an entire court’s lips, but now that she’s been crowned queen of the Blood Court, she’s discovering that a queen’s life is not her own. A heavy weight rests upon her shoulders. Her ward—and her brother—need her back in her homeland…but the changes that have strengthened Saeris have also made her weak. Born under blazing suns, Saeris will surely die if she makes her way home through the Quicksilver. Which means that, once again, she must send someone else in her stead...
 
“Keep your mouth shut.  Stick to the shadows. And for the love of all seven Gods, do NOT crack any jokes.”
 
Kingfisher of the Ajun Gate has defeated armies and survived all manner of horrors, but traveling back to Zilvaren with Carrion Swift might just be the death of him. The male just will not shut up. Hidden dangers await them down the narrow alleyways of the Silver City. Unfolding secrets pose impossible threats. Fisher must wrangle the smuggler and accomplish his goals quickly if he wants to see his mate again.
 
A darkness falls across Yvelia. The realm and their friends are in danger. Together, Saeris and Fisher will pass through fire and brimstone to save them.

    I love this series! Great read! A couple of spelling/grammatical errors but that didn’t take away from how great of a read this is. I LOVE long books.

    I really enjoyed quicksilver and this sequel was even better. I thought the dialogue and character development was great. The author did a great job developing Saeris and Kingfishers relationship in a non-cringy way, you still root for them and look forward to their time together. The overarching plot is so interesting, love the cross realm concepts and Alchemist storyline. In general I don’t relate with the negative reviews of this. I thoroughly enjoyed it and thought that there was so much going on there was no way to close it up into a single book. Can’t wait for the next book!
  • I like it but…

    I got tired of the romance between the MC’s and I also felt like this was rushed. I wish there was more explanation or spreading of information over time. There is so much going on that it’s exciting but also sometimes overwhelming trying to keep track of what’s going on. Also, love Onyx, but that too is such an odd side quest. I don’t know how this is going to end, but I’ll be excited to read the next book.
  • Not complete

    Enjoyable storyline, I like the dialogue between characters and character development. However this book didn’t feel like a complete book. Just as the characters are approaching the books name sake it ends… so Brimstone wasn’t even an accurate title for this section of the storyline. I don’t particularly enjoy books that end on major cliffhangers. Most series or trilogies have a feeling of completion of the story being told… all the Harry potters, lord of the rings, ect had an ending for their section of the story. Ending on a cliffhanger like the way this book does just leaves a person feeling dissatisfied. It actually would have been much more of a complete book if it had ended one chapter sooner with them passing through the gate and ending there. Hopefully I remember this book when the next installment comes around.
  • So bad

    After the long wait for this book it couldn’t be more disappointing. The writing is atrocious and the characters seem totally different from the first book. The spicy scenes are so cringy and hard to read.
  • Needed better editing, okay overall

    Far too many long inner monologues from both POVs. I started skipping over them by about halfway through. The middle also dragged in terms of plot, and I found myself getting confused by the magic system.
  • Love!

    I loved the banter between characters the second book offered. I enjoyed the development of Carrion, Lorreth, and the introduction of Tal. It was also cool to see grow into Saeris her powers but there were points in which I was annoyed with her. She constantly was in her own way and is so freaking stubborn especially with characters who were trying to help her. I had been reading theories fans have been talking about regarding Kingfisher and was pleasantly surprised to see the connection between him and Styx. I’m excited for the next book.
  • A let down

    It's a let down in that half way through the book you instantly know there will be another book . It's was awesome I loved the writing and the newer plots . But we are no closer to the end.
  • A Must Read!
