Review:
The
Wretched Divine is romantasy done to perfection.
In the
Wretched Divine knight Aurelie becomes bound to both an Angel, Yuriel, and a
Demon named Severin in a bid to save her father Varen -- a knight commander turned
demon.
The banter
and sexual tension between Aurelie, Severin, and Yuri are off the charts. I
couldn't get enough of either. The scenes with Aurelie and Severin in
particular are smoldering. I also liked Aurelies friendship with both Vex and
Ilaria. Ilaria's perspective adds a lot of depth to the story and is always a
nice change of pace. Getting a look into Yuri's past really pushes the momentum
and gives a lot of insight into his thinking and actions, giving a character
that would be flat by any other writer a tremendous amount of dimension.
Aside from
perfect pacing, the world-building is truly immersive. You feel fully invested
in the history and lore. Information is fed to you steadily so you never feel
overwhelmed or bogged down by info dumps.
If you are
looking for a flawless and fantastic romantasy this needs to be at the very top
of your TBR. Honestly, this is my book of the year, and it might be yours too.
