Second Book in The Legend of Glory Trilogy
Received book from author as part of the blog tour
I was really excited to read Pretty Sacrifices, the second book in The Legend of Glory Trilogy. I really enjoyed the first book in the series, Glory, (You can check out my review here ) so I was expecting the same with Pretty Sacrifices and I wasn't disappointed. I couldn't put it down!
In Pretty Sacrifices what is left of the worlds population is trying to rebuilt their lives after the pan-plague killed billions. Glory is trying to settle in back home after saving the world and is starting her senior year of high school. Along with this she is coping as best she can with the loss of her father and the whole saga of the pan-plague. Her mum is a shell of herself as she blames her self for the pan plague, as the pharmaceutical company she worked for created the virus that killed billions of people. Glory is a strong character and she is thinking forward to the future, being strong for her mum. However not everything is as straight forward. Demoness Nyx and her sidekick Micah arrive in her hometown of Union and are out to destroy Glory's family and friends as much as she can. Glory soon realises that the pan plague was just the start of things to come.
The story is told though two characters. Glory in Union who is trying to deal with Nyx and Micah with the help of hunky Angel Nicky who has returned with his angel family, Sasha and Rebekah. And Witch Kaia at the Moonstone Coven who is coming to terms with a premonition from her friend Rory which will change her life forever. Glory and Kaia's lives intertwine again and what we learn takes the story in an amazing and unexpected direction.
There was some great new characters in Pretty Sacrifices one of which has to have a special mention as the most cutest character ever, Belle Starr. I can't wait to see where her character goes in the next book.
The love story between Nicky and Glory is so beautiful, I love Nicky! However vampire Zane is still a problem in the growing love of Nicky and Glory as Glory loves them both, but eventually she is going to have to decide and I hope she picks Nicky.
Overall Pretty Sacrifices was an epic read and many sacrifices where made which has changed the lives of many characters. The characters where great, the good and the bad, the writing and flow of the story is prefect and has great twists and turns that kept me hooked. If you haven't checked out the series yet, I highly recommend you do. I can't wait for the last book in the trilogy Genesis!
