Thank you to NetGalley & the publisher for a digital review copy.Īfter a year's wait there the new Dragon Kin book was. Maybe the next book will have a better female lead? Honestly, I don't know how many more of these books I want to read, so I'm kinda hoping that Aiken wraps this shit up sooner, rather than later.īut knowing me, I'll keep on reading these to the bitter end. Sadly, that means the romance is purely background noise, at this point.įortunately, there's a lot of new information, and plenty of interesting characters show up to keep the story moving forward.Ībominations, FTW! <- You gotta be a fan of the books to get that one. I tolerated didn't mind the last book with Kachka's sister in it (she was a bit nicer), but this one just worked my nerves.įeel the Burn's saving grace (for me) was that I'm so invested in finding out about this Final Battle between Annwyl and this cult, I can kind of tune out the voices of these ridiculous Steppes women. Unless he changed his tune, I wouldn't be rooting for him to 'get the girl' in the end. Yeah, it's kinda the way I would feel about a male who thought the same thing about women. Until you realize that these women never really break their prejudice against men. Which, admittedly, sounds funny, right?!Īnd it is.for about 20 seconds.

They come from a society that believes men are helpless, stupid, and too emotional to make their own decisions.

Here's the thing: I don't like the Daughters of the Steppes.Īll of the women and men in these books are annoying, brash, and selfish.īut for some reason, these Steppes just annoy the hell out of me.
