Xlina’s
struggles continue as she tries to fix her broken heart, but she must put her
doubts on hold to save her friend, Amber. In an attempt to reclaim the stolen
soul from the demons and bring it back from the pits of hell, Xlina
joins forces with new allies and old friends. However, this journey is not
going to be easy as she’s headed to Valeria, a succubus demon.
Things take an especially drastic twist when the forces of hell
and heaven join hands to destroy Xlina’s plans. She knows that the path she’s about
to take will be rocky as she tries to battle her deepest fears and overcome her
isolation.
Dirge of the
Dead by Reed Logan Westgate is the second book in the trilogy,
a twisty tale that never lacks surprises and a work of rich imagination. The
characters, as well as the story, evolve with a lot of action as fights break
out between demons. The writing is balanced, with a measured level of dark
humor, sufficient backstory to make it a standalone, and conflict that takes
the narrative forward to unexpected places. The protagonist, Xlina, and her
bond with Oxivius, the necromancer will keep the readers entertained
throughout the book and intrigued at the same time. Additionally, the
references to actual legends are refreshing and the author deftly uses them to
excite the imagination of the reader.
