Book Review: The Wicked and The Damned by Rebecca Robinson

The Wicked and the Damned by Rebecca Robinson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I wasn't sure what to expect coming into this book. Vaasa made a bargain at the end of the first book and I wasn't sure how that would come to pass. I had questions. And, honestly, I still had many questions that grew as I read this book.

I didn't know how the magic would be... given? Then I didn't know how it was working the way it was in this book. And why was the person doing what they were doing?

I grew more and more curious as the book went on. Things were going a different direct that I had thought it might at the end of the previous book. And I'm great with this. Especially after finishing the book.

Let's talk about Vaasa. She's an amazing woman. She's smart. And men seem to miss that and think she's just a pretty face. She plays these men to get what she wants. That brings us to Reid. Reid knows she's smart and so much more than the men of her country give her credit for. And he loves her for all the reasons.

Reid... I said in the first book we didn't get to see the deadly and dangerous warrior he's said to be. We get to see that side of him here. He's calculating too, even though he thinks he's not. He knows when to lay low and when to attack.

In the end I got insight into why things were set to happen as they were. And the Epilogue helped fill in gaps at the end for this. I like this direction. And I'm looking forward to the next books to see what Vaasa does with what she's learned. Because I feel there's more that's not told to her, something that could be danger for her.
