5 INFERNAL STARS!

Hello. Let me introduce you to my newest OTP.

"And so it was, and so it shall be, for the Age of Man is over, and the Age of the Horseman has begun. They came to earth, and they came to end us all."

Sweet baby Jesus this was everything I needed, hoped it would be and more. Laura Thalassa sprung this one on us last minute and she has done it again. Nobody quite does enemies-to-lovers stories (best trope ever) quite the way Laura does and boy did she hit the mark this time. I think this may be tied for my favorite 2018 read now.

First of all, I love the originality of this story. Four Horseman of the Apocalypse? Yes, please and thank you, take my money. The plan is for there to be four books in this series, each one focusing on one of the horseman in a world caught under the wrath of God. This first book focuses on the first horseman of the apocalypse, Pestilence and his duty to spread plague across the world.

Enter Sara Burns, a firefighter living in British Columbia with a penchant for cussing too much and the will to save the world. It's in her selfless act to stop the horseman that she instead finds herself an unwilling passenger with a front row seat to his apocalyptic quest. As they ride across the land, Sara finds that she may be the only one who can save humanity, even if she must suffer for it.

"His eyes find mine, the flames dancing in them. Even lit by fire, he looks like an angel.
The devil was also an angel."

Did someone say slowwwww burn? I thought I may die of anticipation. Let's face it, that's what we are here for, right? Boy, does it pay off. You will not be disappointed. However, there is so much more to this story than the romantic aspect of it.

It's rare for me to feel such a range of emotions for a character like I did for Pestilence. There were many times I felt nothing but contempt for him, but I also felt sympathy and he found ways to make me laugh, cry and feel giddy. There were times I was right there with Sara and wanted him to burn for everything he had done. On the other hand, there were times I just wanted to stare at the fire and share my pie with him. It says something when an author can make you feel so much for a character. His transformation through this story is both a beautiful and tragic thing to witness. Eventually, I found the fondness he expressed endearing and came to love his gallantry, no matter how troubled he was.

Sara herself was funny, somewhat crass and totally relatable. I mean, I get it girl. He sucks big time, but damn ... we can still enjoy looking at him. I loved how she slowly corrupted Pestilence (as he would claim), introducing him to human pleasures such as alcohol, poetry and ... more. I also found it interesting how Sara herself changed throughout the story, finding humanity where it shouldn't belong and inhumanity where it should. There were times I felt as though Laura must have been living inside my mind because I'm pretty certain Sara had the same reaction I would have had to every situation she found herself in. Sara isn't perfect, she's normal. And I loved that about her.

This book has few secondary characters, with the story focusing primarily on Sara and Pestilence's travels together. However, each of the secondary characters left a deep impression and each helped to transform the two main characters. I'm certain the words unicorn pajamas and the names Ruth and Rob will forever cause a tear to well up in the my eye when I hear them. This story does not hold back and it will tug on your heartstrings until they are frayed.

The atmosphere was also befittingly apocalyptic, right from the first chapter. Laura set this book and series up perfectly and I still feel the ominous and chilling nature of it. There were times my emotions were running on high and I had to set the book aside to collect myself. After all, while Pestilence and Sara are learning more about each other, he is also killing humanity off by the thousands. There is no sugarcoating the brutality of what is happening and how wrong it feels. Nobody is safe from the suffering Pestilence has to offer up.

All of that said, this story depicts a love of epic proportions. One I will endure for!

AND THAT EPILOGUE! My heart is frozen in anticipation for what is to come. Holy cheeseballs, this is one of those books that you need the sequel to immediately. Please?

Pestilence The Four Horsemen Volume 1 Laura Thalassa 9781986665810 Books Reviews


Where do I even begin with this AMAZING book?!?!
Let's start with the cover. I saw this book as a suggested title and the cover is what caught my eye at first. Just look at it! It's absolutely gorgeous artwork and what makes it even more beautiful is the fact that the story behind it will make you smile, tear up, furrow your brow in anger, and pull at your heart-strings. Not a lot of novels can do this; they are far and few between.

The main character, Sara, her voice comes to life and you really feel as if you are there, traveling across the West Coast with her. Her inner monologues are not mundane and cliche like so many other novels in this genre. Some of the things she says are things that I too say. I felt it was realistic.

The story builds slowly but the burn lies deep inside, sparking at first until you are consumed by a wildfire that you don't want to stop. The characters progression through the novel is believable. A huge pet peeve of mine is when one of the main characters decides to do a 180. Someone who is heroically stoic, tall dark and handsome and then suddenly becomes as limp as a wet towel... I am so over that!

If you want a book that will really pull you in, make you fall in love with the characters, and toy with your heart, READ THIS BOOK!! Be warned though, this is one of those novels that will keep you awake several hours past the point of no return.

Edit, Oct 10th 2018 That beautiful cover is gone! I was a bit upset about this but if you head on over to the author's blog she explains what has happened.
One of the best things about Laura Thalassa is that she is able to take characters that you should absolutely hate, and peel back their layers to show a character so beautifully flawed that you can’t help but love them.

This book manages to do that and so much more! What happens when the four horseman of the apocalypse destroy everything you know? For Sara Burns this is her reality. For 5 years, Sarah and humanity have been trying to survive the downfall of technology and life as they know it. However, when Pestilence re-emerges life seems hopeless. When Pestilence finally makes its way to her home town, she literally draws the short stick and stays behind to try to put an end to his ride of terror. Something Sara doesn’t know? Pestilence is immortal and indestructible. After her attempt on his life, she is taken prisoner and made to watch as the world crumbles around her.

These complex characters manage to change and alter each other so drastically that neither is the same at the end of this book. This series is masterfully in-depth and complex. You will have moments of laughter, tears, and scenes that will leave goosebumps behind. This book somehow manages to not only capture these characters, but shine a light on what it means to be human; good and bad.

I honestly cannot give this book enough praise!
The amount of physical and psychological torture he (Pestilence) puts her through is revolting, and yet we're supposed to believe she fell madly in love with him because of his abs and high cheek bones and pouty lips (which are described in detail no less than five times every chapter)? Not only that but almost every other character we meet ends up dead. This 'romance' had more on-screen deaths in it than some of the dystopian novels I've read and a majority are described in graphic detail. The main character is a foul-mouthed bratty teen in an adult body and we're supposed to take her side (I think). Just... wow. The plot, if there was one, is weak to the point of being almost non-existent. The ending is abrupt, the resolution poorly explained, and the epilogue is literally only there to introduce the next book, not to tie up any loose ends.

I'll say one good thing about it, though it had a horse in it. Unfortunately, said horse didn't escape the torture porn but he's immortal & can walk on water. If only it was written for his POV...
