We Come With Vengeance by H.G. Muralee [REVIEW]

[Kaier Chronicles]

The war has stretched on for twenty years, and the soldiers, civilians, and nobles are exhausted. Towns grow more desolate while war technology continues to advance, leaving the rest of Kaier behind.

Felix—heir to House Leigh-Van—harbors resentment for the war that has claimed his sister’s life and his father’s ethics. Regardless, he follows his orders and is content to remain equal among his fellow soldiers.

When a routine stop for repairs puts Felix at the epicenter of a brutal attack impacting civilians rather than soldiers, he struggles to continue separating his ethics from his duty. He’s privately ambivalent but publicly supportive of his uncle—the king—when whispers of an underground rebellion start to circulate. The rebellion is gaining traction and could soon make a serious play at ending the war.

But when even the tactics of the resistance begin claiming lives as quickly as the war itself, Felix starts to wonder who will survive to see the peace they’re fighting for.

We Come With Vengeance - A TBR Addictions Review

[No Spoilers]

We Come With Vengeance is a very intense, epic (406 pages worth), action-packed and well-written book! This story isn't the genre that I usually read, but I enjoyed it very much. The author provides a pronunciation guide, content warning and some background information about the world at the beginning of the book, which makes a tremendous difference in understanding where she's going with the story. Also, I'm one of those readers that enjoys a good book cover (even if it's digital) and the cover for We Come With Vengeance rocks!

We Come With Vengeance starts out all Battlestar Galactica and goes on from there. Muralee's world-building is deftly detailed and imaginative. Her characters maybe could be fleshed out a little more in the beginning of the book, but you get to know them better as the story progresses. The dialogue and relationships between the characters are strong and interesting, which draws you into the story right from the get-go.

We Come With Vengeance is a brilliantly written book, full of imagination and action! I enjoyed reading it, I highly recommend it and I'm giving We Come With Vengeance a 5 Star TBR Review. Thank you for stopping by TBR Addictions!
