Rebel Witch, the conclusion to the Crimson Moth duology picks up right where the Heartless Hunter/Crimson Moth left off. Cressida is at her most devious and has big plans for Rune Winters to use her powers of persuasion and seduction to continue the Reign of Witches. Rune is engaged to Soren, a prince of Umbria who has a large army. If Rune can get him on their side, then the Witches can take over again. Gideon Sharpe, captain of the Blood Guard has followed Rune across the sea to continue his mission to kill the Crimson Moth.
I have mixed feelings on this one. I LOVED it up until about 75% and then things went a little haywire. It felt like SO MUCH was going down that I almost couldn’t keep up! It felt a little like the author had written herself into so many different plot points that tying up all of the loose ends made the climax a little chaotic. However, the romance in this was actually pretty good and done very well. It felt believable within this world and some of the choices the characters are forced to make made the stakes even higher.
One Open Door smut scene, but it's tasteful for the most part, considering...
All in all, a pretty awesome YA Romantasy duology that doesn't read like YA at all.
