REVIEW: SHADES OF BLOOD BY SAMANTHA YOUNG

SHADES OF BLOOD / WARRIORS OF ANKH #3
SAMANTHA YOUNG

SYNOPSIS (Goodreads)

Eden’s life has taken a turn she would never have imagined. She’s gone from soul eater to warrior, left behind a family she was ashamed of and moved in with one she admires. She has a purpose, a future, and… she has Noah.

Life should be good.

But… the most fervent and powerful soul eaters are determined to take down the Ankh and Eden is the key to the destruction of the warrior race.
Moreover, a shadowed enemy is still after Eden, and the mortal Warriors of Neith have chosen the worst time imaginable to start an uprising.

With an enemy in every corner the problems before her are overwhelming. Then again, Eden hasn’t come this far to let anyone snatch her new life from her…
However, just when Eden thought she’d battled the monster within and won, the warrior who took something precious from her comes back into her life, tempting Eden to take a course of revenge there is no turning back from.

Vengeance is such a bitch…

… So is Eden when the stakes are high.

MY TAKE

5 STARS

I really, really hated to see this series end! I love the characters and want MORE! I think it would be absolutely wonderful to see Cyrus fall in love again, to see if Val and Darius find their way back to each other, see Jack fall in love...just so many possibilities!

A lot of people want to see Eden dead in Shades of Blood, and they try darn hard to make it happen. Eden and Noah's relationship is strained. Eden has to find a way to let go of her anger and hate she holds toward Noah's ex-girlfriend, Romany, for killing her brother, Shellan. If Eden can't, Darius has to take her out to protect the Anhk. Therefore, Eden has to make a choice to either get past the hate, or die by the hands of Darius.

This has been an absolutely great series!

Now for the bad...what's up with the new covers? I'm not crazy about them at all. For one, they have no relevance to the books. I know the author, Samantha Young, was stoked about the new covers, and they are cool covers, but just not for this series.

I love, love, love this series! It has a history for the Ankh and the characters within. I love when stories go global and make you feel like this can exist in our lives. It is a terrible, amazing, and exciting story about the characters life!

I'm glad you enjoyed this series as much as I did! I'm still hoping that later on down the line the author decides to write another book for this series.
