HI. Author, here! Now that the (AMAZINGLY GORGEOUS) cover has been revealed, let’s talk content + content warnings ...

Content:

This book involves blood magic, death magic, a spooky underworld, and ghostly guardians. It stars a young woman (19), Rovan, who falls for her hated guardian, gets entranced by a beguiling princess at the same time, and starts a revolution in both the living world and the underworld.

IN THE RAVENOUS DARK is a superb standalone fantasy brimming with wit, romance, and plenty of blood. If you made it through 2020 by playing HADES, this queer, polyamorous tale of a determined girl trying to escape a city ruled by death and dark magic needs to be the first thing on your 2021 wishlist.

I liked this book more than I expected! When I started it, I was put off by the first person perspective, but the flow of the story got me used to it and by the end, I barely even noticed anymore.

There is a L.O.T. to this story, and all of it is delightfully unique. While blood magic is not a new concept in fantasy, it is portrayed differently here than in other stories (I'm mostly thinking of Dragon Age, tbh). Based on Rovan's power, it feels like blood barely plays a role in her magic, but for I liked this book more than I expected! When I started it, I was put off by the first person perspective, but the flow of the story got me used to it and by the end, I barely even noticed anymore.

There is a L.O.T. to this story, and all of it is delightfully unique. While blood magic is not a new concept in fantasy, it is portrayed differently here than in other stories (I'm mostly thinking of Dragon Age, tbh). Based on Rovan's power, it feels like blood barely plays a role in her magic, but fortunately she is still far from a prodigy. Too often, fantasy novels feature main characters who are annoyingly good at something they've barely started doing, but while Rovan clearly has the raw power, she lacks the finesse that she eventually (sort of) learns.

The setting itself was great! I haven't come across too many fantasy novels that are based so much on Greek society without focusing on the mythology. But it didn't feel like the author merely "transplanted" ancient Greece into their setting--Thanopolis (such an apt name) is very much its own place, in a world that is definitely fantasy. The other nation presented is very "elven," which contrasts interestingly with Thanopolis and its Greek influences.

The plot was very intricate, with many twists and turns, and while some stories can play too heavily on plot and lose character, Strickland does an excellent job of developing characters that show that potential at the beginning. Not every character undergoes changes, but then not every character in a novel needs to be different by the end. If everyone was given the chance to change, the book would have been over-long, but there was just enough growth to be satisfying.

And of course the love stories! I thought all the love in this book was very sweet. And so many different kinds of love are represented, and (for the most part) it is all treated as perfectly normal. There are some relationships that aren't often shown in fantasy novels, or even YA, and I thought it was delightful that Strickland included them.

Speaking of YA--I actually forgot Multiple Times! that this book is categorized as YA. Partially because of the content, partially because of the tone, this story just doesn't scream "YA" to me. Technically, yes, the main character is nineTEEN, but still. I'm not complaining though--I don't generally like YA, so I enjoyed this.

Overall, clearly I enjoyed this book. There were definitely some things that weren't perfect, I'd hardly argue perfection (but what book Is perfect??). But I genuinely enjoyed this book and its characters, and am glad I had a chance to read and review it. ...more

Honestly, I do not know how to rate this book. It has me in an inner conflict.
I liked the protagonist Rovan, she was a badass, strong and fierce, and a selfish person too, she was complex and I liked it. I also adored the sex positivity and female friendships and LGBTI representation and the fact that Rovan is actually in love with both a man and a woman, Lydea and Ivrilos, was really something fresh to read in the genre.
However, this might be a case of "it's me, not you". The author created a ...more

Great plot, incredible worldbuilding, and characters I could follow for an entire series.

Reading other reviews, In The Ravenous Dark seems to be quite the favourite, so I had high hopes for this one and the cover is gorgeous! Unfortunately though, I really struggled on this one. The themes in this book are pretty dark, we’re talking torture, gore etc, suggesting a more adult audience, and yet the writing itself just isn’t advanced for that. Key points or scenes have a habit of ending with Rovan simply blacking out and you then find out what happened without the first person experien Reading other reviews, In The Ravenous Dark seems to be quite the favourite, so I had high hopes for this one and the cover is gorgeous! Unfortunately though, I really struggled on this one. The themes in this book are pretty dark, we’re talking torture, gore etc, suggesting a more adult audience, and yet the writing itself just isn’t advanced for that. Key points or scenes have a habit of ending with Rovan simply blacking out and you then find out what happened without the first person experience of it, which feels pretty dissatisfying. The ending feels unrealistically wrapped up (and I mean unrealistic for a book that essentially has the undead in it!) and the characters just have no growth or adequate depth to them.
I did think the concept was good though and the world building was interesting both in life and the afterlife.

I really appreciated the LGBQT representation in this book, pansexuality isn’t something I am personally familiar with and I appreciated these open discussions in the book, particularly when Japha was on the page. That said, I did not enjoy the romance in this book, mostly because there just wasn’t any. Rovan knows next to nothing about Lydea, and hates Ivrilos, her guardian, but you know both are attractive because that’s all Rovan thinks of them, Lydea is stunning and Ivrilos’ cheekbones, his hair etc, then the word ‘love’ is suddenly being used, there’s no tension, no progression, no chemistry (and therefore no intimacy in the sex scene) and I did not understand what anyone saw in each other or what Rovan actually contributed to the pairings because she’s actually pretty awful and treats badly the 3 people who love her in this book. Rovan constantly says she’s selfish, that she’s a monster, she seems to be ashamed about both these things briefly, and yet she continues to be selfish and act like a monster, she literally murders guards, tortures someone, licks the blood off them, overpowers and feeds off someone and then the next moment she’s sizing up to people who suggest she’s uncontrollable. She betrays both people she loves and yet when it comes to forgiving these actions, there’s no conversation of personal growth, they just accept her. Acceptance for who you are is a big theme in this book and I appreciate that but she literally just does what she wants with no regard or kindness and people have to just take it.

Kineas, the crown prince, is suggested to be a predator to women, has a rumoured reputation of hurting women, and yet we experience very little of him on the page, he’s a pig when he taunts Rovan and when they spar he tries to take her out even after she’s won, but he’s not the villain in this book and yet his punishment is dragged out like some sort of vengeance. Kineas wasn’t a character remotely bulked out and formed and it felt wholly unnecessary to be routing for Rovan when she ultimately confronts him based on actually very little, particularly as she had both taken consent from someone herself and killed before confronting him. The characters just didn’t feel real, the author wanted things to happen and the characters to do things and the book read like a bullet point serious of events without the emotional lines connecting them. But that is just my opinion and I know plenty of others did enjoy this. It’s not a long book but it felt long to me reading it because I just didn’t care about any of the characters or what happened.

Thank you NetGalley, I appreciated the opportunity to read this book. I enjoyed the concept and the representation, I just wish the execution had been better ...more

I am sitting here, staring at my screen, a little unsure of where to begin. This book left me with conflicting feelings and I’m waffling on whether I did or whether I didn’t actually enjoy this story. If I say, “Yes, I did!” now, in five minutes I’m likely to change my mind. Let’s work these feelings out together, shall we?

I enjoyed reading a fantasy novel that had polyamory that wasn’t frowned upon. Our main character, Rovan, has strong feelings for both Lydea, the rebellious princess, and Ivrilos, her…ghost warrior guard/keeper? While, obviously, Ivrilos was written as a romantic interest with ulterior motives I just didn’t like him. He is a soft boy with big ghost swords and even bigger secrets and his very nonexistence made my nose curl.

The plot is what really drew me to this book. I love a good Save The World story with a side of romance and rebellion. While the overarching plot is good, even great, in concept, I just don’t feel like it was executed well. While some inconsistencies I can excuse for this being an ARC, and I know further editing will occur before the finished book is released, it didn’t stop from the overall story from feeling choppy. While reading, it felt like the writer had a bullet point list of how things should happen and once the item was achieved we moved along to the next point without much in the way of transition. Typically these scene changes seemed to involve our main character becoming black out drunk or being knocked out which allowed transition to the next scene and bullet point item without any kind of flow or set up. She just suddenly wakes up somewhere else and we piece together where she is now and what is going on from there. It left the story feeling choppy and inconsistent.

Despite these little annoyances, I did like the book overall. The plot was interesting enough to keep me engaged and caring how everything sorted out in the end. While I do think the ending was also overly convenient it worked to a point within the confines of the existing plot. Do I wish the plot dug a little deeper and that the story was more fleshed out? Absolutely. But as is, it is still good.

Did I manage to work through my feelings for this book? I’m not sure. The choppy story telling and lack of depth frustrated me but at the same time I felt invested in the outcome. The characters were distinct and had obvious and unique characteristics that set them apart. It was also nice seeing a gender queer side character but as I don’t identify as gender queer I can’t say whether or not that was well represented. So, I suppose, overall this book was pretty good but there were definitely points to be improved upon but I would still pick up books by this author in the future. ...more

In the Ravenous Dark follows Rovan, a pansexual blood mage who ends up being bethrothed against her will to the despicable prince of the kindgom and being bound to a magical ghost guardian.

Rovan was a fairly solid main character, of course I loved the pansexual aspect (as I am pan myself!) and one line she said when talking about her prefences really stuck with me - "I'm attracted to beauty not to parts". I did think she was a little easily lead astray and was like a little lost puppy following the other characters around, so when a certain event happened towards the last 1/3 of the book I feel like it jarred with her character a bit. I also feel that fundamentally the 1st person POV made me enjoy the book a little less, and the world was so interesting as well as some very complex court politics that we didn't really get to explore properly because of the limited POV and length of the book.

Lydea, one of Rovan's love interests was probably my favourite character, along with Japha, they are both such vibrant and dymanic characters. Part of me wishes the book was from Lydea's POV as the court angle would have been so interesting. Lydea is the twin sister of Kineas, the person Rovan is bethrothed to marry, and is a lesbian. Japha is non-binary and asexual, another fantastic character who adds so much charm and humour to the story.

Ivrilos is the other love interest and is bound to rovan as her guardian, as sort of ghost mentor and controller of her powers. It is a very complex dynamic between them, and he did feel a bit stereotypical love interest, I didn't dislike him (although Lydea was definetly my favoruite LI). His past however is very interesting and how that ties into the world, the court set up and the lineage of the current kings. I also thinks the author does a good job of making him seem like a jaded immortal.

One thing I wasn't entirely sold on was how quickly the characters came to love each other, I actually really liked the relationship dynamics, I love the consenual non-magonomy rep and I liked both Lydea and Ivrilos as love interests, but I found myself scoffing in disbelief at how quickly they all started professing their undying love for each other. This is however quite a common problem in YA books and I think can be attribtued to the generally fast paced nature of them.

I really liked the atmosphere of the world, and thought the idea of the underworld was pretty well explained and thought through. I also quite liked the way a vampire type storyline was brought in, this made me very nostalgic and while it lead to some massive plot conviences I'm a sucker for a happy ending so I really didn't mind. The writing is not overly flowery but it does make you feel like you are there with the charcaters and you get a real sense of what the world feels like.

Overall an enjoyable read, would be perfect around halloween time, it doesn't have any deep themes but sometimes it's refreshing to have an enjoyable and dramatic read! And it's always good to see lots of unapolgetic queer rep in a fantasy book.

This had come across my radar on Twitter and Edelweiss, but I had brushed it off for reasons unknown. I liked the author's previous book for the asexuality rep but nothing else about it stuck with me. I'm liking Young Adult books less and less these days. So that might be it.

I certainly regret putting it off for so long, because I really, surprisingly liked it, like, a lot!

The book follows a 19 year old pansexual woman named Rovan, who is a rogue blood mage in a society, sort of modeled after Ancient Greece, where blood mages are conscripted and bound to ghost servants. After using her powers to save her lover, she's discovered and sent to the castle where the royal family and other blood mages live, and bound to a ghost. She uncovers truths regarding her parentage and just how the dark undercurrent of blood magic and death magic function in her society, and how a malevolent force is draining the world around the capital to the point of it being uninhabitable.

This book has so much LGBTQIA and polyamory rep, as well as multiple characters of color, all of it felt real and genuine. I loved the main character and her relationships (the romance and her friendships), the darker themes and body horror. The magic system was so interesting and unique. *chef's kiss* There was plenty of action and the book pulled me in right away.

The author has posted a review containing content warnings and whatnot but I do want to reiterate that this book is not exactly Young Adult. It's definitely for 16/17+. There are two sex scenes, and while not exactly fully detailed smut, they aren't fade to black, either. Plenty of swearing, including the F word. Depictions of gore. Character deaths. Alcoholism. None of this bothered me and was what made me enjoy it even more (since I haven't been enjoying YA all that much lately) but I figured I would include it in my review so others can be aware.

All in all, it was a very quick, engaging, and entertaining read and I definitely recommend it! ...more
