I am a split soul….Lorelei Darrow is one of the poisoned children of Roane Hollow blamed for the split of the human and fae world. People are terrified of ancient prophecy and, after a child goes missing and a dark secret uncovered, they need a human sacrifice to appease the fae betrayed, tried without a jury, and sentenced to die at dawn.She’s not surprised. She’s a split soul, one blue eye for her radiant soul and one purple eye for her cursed soul. After barely escaping death, she’s found by the Corps of the Cursed, a secret society tasked with hunting the dark fae. Elite hunter, Jude Jenson—with his green eyes and perpetual scowl—is in charge of training assassins and begrudgingly agrees to teach her. Lorelei thinks he’s full of himself and he think’s she’s too delicate to kill fae.But the violence and fae attacks ramp up. Something is coming. Lorelei and Jude uncover a curse that stems back to the Lost Colony of Roanoke Island, a prophecy that can’t be stopped. She is coming.And they’re the only ones who can stop her.
Under the Devil's Sun is the second book I have read by Heather Hambel Curley, and I loved it as well. It was action packed, easy to read, suspenseful, humorous, with just the right amount of romance. Great world building and well developed characters. Loved finding out about Lorelei, Jude and Reed! Looking forward to reading more from Heather!
Living in a post apocalyptic world Lorelei (the MFC) has always been an outsider. With eyes of different colours that make her stand out as a split soul and that makes her target. After a boy goes missing in her town, she is blamed and the cast out to a certain death in the wilds outside. By sheer determination she survives and stumbles upon more survivors including Jude. With whom sparks fly but they rub each other up the wrong way. Lorelei has a purpose to fulfill. One she can save the world with Judes help. Ill be honest im not a huge fan of Post Apocalyptic books but i gave this one a try and i was pleasantly surprised. Its a fabulous read full of action, betrayal and amazing characters. I enjoyed it from start to finish. Couldnt put it down
This is the first book I've read by this author so I wasn't sure what to think. I picked it up and was drawn into the story within the first few pages. I literally spent all day reading because I couldn't put it down and finished it in one day.
This is a great post apocalyptic story that incorporates some fantasy elements into it. The world has been fully developed and the characters have a great complexity to them.
