A Vow So Bold and Deadly by Brigid Kemmerer

  • Twitter summary: The final instalment of the Cursebreakers series — will it be Rhen or Grey as the victor?
  • The good: I’ll admit that I am pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed this last book. I didn’t have high expectations as I felt indifferent about Book #2. Maybe it’s because I needed a fantasy fix or I wanted to know what was going to happen to Rhen and Grey. I still can’t decide who I like more; Rhen might have a slight edge because of Lia Mara (sorry Grey!). I enjoyed Kemmerer’s portrayal of Harper (her tenacity), Tycho (his loyalty) and Noah (his demeanour) and felt genuinely invested in their character development. However, the biggest saving grace of the series is the relationship between Rhen and Grey — their ending is sweetly satisfying.
  • The bad: Lia Mara — I can’t stand her character. I was bored and annoyed with her throughout Book #2 and that carried on with the final book.
  • Recommendation: If you get past Book #2, then for sure, read this book.
  • Overall rating: 4/5 curses
