The Primal of Blood and Bone (Blood and Ash, #6) by Jennifer L. Armentrout

    



Here's a little about The Primal of Blood and Bone (Blood and Ash, #6)
Add on [goodreads]


In the shadows and flames, Primals will fall…

And from the blood and ash, new gods will rise.

What was dreamt.

Poppy was never meant to awaken, and the consequences are devastating and far-reaching, stirring ancient powers from their slumber and transforming Casteel and Kieran in ways even the Fates couldn’t have foreseen. But what that means is the least of their concerns. For now.

What was foreseen.

The Blood Crown has fallen, but what has risen is a far greater danger than they’ve ever faced. From flesh and fire, the Great Conspirator has returned to the mortal realm, and he wants only one thing. They must stop the true Primal of Death before he regains his strength, and it won’t be easy. Even weakened, his influence is undeniable. His power, unthinkable.

Has come to be.

While the future of the realms rests upon them, they won’t stand alone. The gods have awakened—each harboring their own blood-soaked secrets. But they must navigate an unbalanced realm, where every choice—past and present—has the potential to not only undo everything they’ve fought for but also destroy the very bonds that have Joined them together.

For the Harbinger and the Bringer of Death and Destruction has risen.

Review



Before I start anything, this review might contain spoilers from the previous books. If you have not yet read the series, I highly recommend you do it.

Best order to read the Blood and Ash series and the Flesh and Fire series


I don’t know how to write this review… Honestly, I feel like there is so much to unpack and it’s craaaaazy!

Trying to make this review spoiler free is going to be hard because of lot is happening. I can totally understand why this book had to be split in two because Jen wants to make sure we suffer a great deal before we reach the end lol Okay more seriously, she unpacked a lot of things that needed to be cleared and we know there are still a few things left to discover and probably ones we didn’t even think about.

This book gave us so much information, and it was a lot, which makes me wonder what more will she unload in the last book or if this last one will be just as big as this one. But I hope at the same time there will be more to it than just info dumping too because as much as it may be necessary, sometimes it can make a book a lot harder to get into which I won’t lie is one of the reasons it took me a while to finish.

When it comes to characters, I feel quite mixed about it all because I felt like something wasn’t the same as the previous books. I really felt sometimes there was a disconnect between them which I did not enjoy, but at the same time, all of this could be explained with everything that is going on in the book, but still. But I was equally happy to read about them again and I wished some of them had been there more often in the book. Some I wish we didn’t have to deal with but unfortunately, they are there, and we need to deal with them. This book didn’t (not that I believed it would) change my mind about Kolis.

I trust that all the pain we got throughout the whole series will be worth the wait for the next book because even though Jen loves to make us suffer through loss and pain in her book series, she will always give us a HEA, and I really hope she doesn’t change that for this book series.

Overall, I did enjoy the book. It may not be necessarily my favourite of the series, but I still enjoyed it and was happy to connect again with all the characters and Jen is one of the few authors who will always find a way to get out of my reading slumps.

I was giving an advanced copy of this book in exchange of an honest review.
