Bookstagrammer Review of The Call of Eternity
Bookstagrammer Asrar Lydia received a free book in return for an honest review.
You guys know that I absolutely loved The Lost Valor of Love, and let me just tell you that TCOE did NOT LOWER THE BAR. I feel like most sequels are either just brilliant or fall flat, and this one is 100% in the brilliant box.
The storylines that were built up in the first book came together in such a mind blowing way in this book, and I ADORE the way the author incorporated more fantasy elements and not only mythology ones in this instalment. I think it’s really cool when authors dare to do something extra with their books, especially when it catches you off guard. The incorporation of certain fantasy elements in this book really made the story that much richer in my opinion. It also makes the stakes for the next book that much higher, AND MY ANXIETY IS RACIIIIING GUYS!
Aside from world building, character arcs are one of my favourite things – something that this book is absolutely exploding with. I especially love the arc of Urhi-Teshub, the way he needs to compromise and grow in order to do what he has to do is probably one of my absolute favourite parts in this book. He was one of my favourites since book one, and I really like where his story is going. I have many theories about what will happen to him in the third (and final) book but most of all I JUST WANT HIM TO BE HAPPY.
Another very interesting character journey is Ahmen’s, I don’t want to say too much but his arc in this book makes me VERY excited to see his actions in the third one! He does do some.. uh many.. questionable things (to say the least – no spoilers) but since I like character development a lot I look forward to see where he is going!
Overall, this is just a rock solid 5 star sequel. EA Carter is one of my favourite authors, and I cannot stress how much I adore this series! If you like historical hot romance, this series is one for you – don’t sleep on it!
