Book Review: Night of Death and Flowers

 

Some fates are carved in stone.

Others are created with blood.

For most people, Dahryst is a haven for witches, safeguarded by the gods from the human pursuers. But, for Calista, her home is a perilous place.

Wielding a power reserved for the God of Death alone, she must conceal her ability or perish.

However, when she decides to stop the Harvest—a tournament to the death set on the sacred ground of Tenenocti Island—she risks not only revealing the truth and becoming targeted by the elders, but also putting her best friend's life in jeopardy.

When Azkiel, the God of Death returns, after being absent for over a century, an ancient prophecy is unveiled, foretelling his downfall at the hands of Calista. But when secrets unfold, the God of Death is force to forge an alliance with Calista, further intertwining their fates.

Will she be able to resist the darkness in her veins, unveil the ancient mysteries shrouding her, and stop a vengeful god to save herself and her loved ones? Or will the journey lead her to pay the ultimate price and lose everything she holds close?

Night of Death and Flowers is a dark fantasy romance that combines dark magic, fate, romance, and survival. In a world where every action can tip the scales, will they fall into salvation or ruin?



My Review

Ask me why I love to read romantasy books. It is because of the gorgeous storyline and rich characters. That is what Rebecca brings us with this book. Rebecca weaves a lovely story that will have you spellbound.

Instantly, I was drawn to both Calista and Azkiel. Their voices are distinct and really lend to their stories. I felt for them both and what their prophecies are and how their intertwined with each other. The abilities that Calista possessed made her an outcast. Yet, she did not let this get her down. This is why I liked Calista a lot.

Azkiel may seem like a villain but underneath he is a good one. The best of both worlds a little bad and good. Whenever Azkiel was around, he demanded your attention. He and Calista are soooo good together.
