About this deal

Liam the World Ender (aka Samkiel), was such a big, soft, grumpy, teddy bear hero, with so much trauma to work through. Paperback/Hardback The Book of Azrael is the first book in an adult fantasy Gods and Monsters series by Amber V. Seriously, it's a bookish pet peeve of mine that I'm afraid I'll have to live with for the rest of my life. HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO LIVE LOVE LAUGH WITH THAT CLIFFHANGER AND THE FACT NO ONE TALKS ABOUT THIS BOOK?

Dianna has been functioning as his semi-human weapon ever since, and has been tasked with finding The Book of Azrael, a book said to contain the secrets to opening up the doors between realms. This is a debut novel, and it’s literally amazing BUT if you’re a person who doesn’t like some typos/formatting issues in ebooks, maybe wait to see if this has an update soon. and also regarding the characters, where they are described as characters that are thousands of years old but behave like teenagers(which I have no problem with) but that is inconsistent with the story. I love worlds like this that are inhabited by supernatural beings because I love seeing how they have integrated and the societies they have built based around their origins.There was a lot of potential for their dynamic to add real depth and conflict to the work, but I felt that it was overlooked in a way that detracted from the read for me. I just couldn't decide if I liked Dianna or Liam more, but then I said fuck it, and cheered in bi, going for both. The world building, like any other fantasy novel, can feel a bit slow, but I loved how in depth we get with Dianna and Liam. They are the polar opposites - one is full of life and fight, the other has shut down from the world.

When she isn’t working she is dreaming of far off places with dragons, usually men with swords and villians who are more than they appear.she is cruel, sassy, strong, completely selfless and the most perfect morally grey fmc i have ever encountered, but she hides behind a façade of sarcasm and snark. I also appreciated that these two were proper enemies as a lot of books that claim this, that just isn’t the case, they are frenemies at best, these two were the real deal and initially hated each other's guts. Kaden your power-hungry and manipulative wants-to-rule-the-world types and created Dianna for his cause. I am so glad BookTok showed me this book, I jumped in based off of one single line and I regret NOTHING! every page is them ranting about each other and if it's not that, we get those long ass flashbacks or some stupid explaining about some stupid shit i couldn't care less about.

Dianna gave up herself to save her sister and is now a dangerous weapon who does not hesitate to use her powers even if they are used for wrong deeds. There are typos, missing punctuation marks, missing/incorrect words - the full gamut of a very rough first draft. Since the Gods War, he's been isolating himself from others, believing it's best for everyone who he wants to protect. The conflict and the factions are clearly defined in their context, no overbearing history lecture was given, a thing many experienced fantasy authors still struggle with. I really liked how sarcastic and snarky she was, I found myself laughing out loud at some of the things that she said.I'm not going to go through and change my review for it, but I just want to acknowledge that the current version(on kindle unlimited, at least) has been edited a bit more. This is the first time I have come across such a rational, deep and sincere connection between the protagonist in a book, and I love it. Her interactions and fiery personality were a fun counterbalance to Liam's seriousness as he adapts to his new surroundings.

She wasn't original in any specific way, but I will never get tired of female main characters like her.There’s a scene where they go to a nightclub to meet up with Gabby’s current fling, and this is after Dianna has been going on and on about how she never gets to see her sister and she’s so glad to see her and blah blah blah. Once human Dianne was transformed into what she now is by her master and sometime lover Kaden an I didn't remember how long we talked, but somewhere amidst her laughter and smiles, I decided I would rip the whole world for her.
