✒️2 S&S upcoming releases reviews
The Divine Shadow (Saga Press)
Book 2 of Duology will be released Nov 10, 2026
4.5 stars 🌟
Such a sad and pretty end to the very last paragraph. It starts with some humor as Lys and her goddess occupy the same body, wanting a bottle of wine and more funny bits.
Told in the first person we get really close to this character, her thoughts, opinions and dark humor. She decides that she no longer wants to share her being with her goddess and cuts the connection, now we have a few chapters (the entire middle that drags a bit, made me think of Harry and Hermione days and days in that tent hiding, traveling, to reach the decision that their world is a better one without deities, but... sacrifices must be made. So grim... great dark imagery, a sad end.
Very pretty duology. I liked it more than Godkiller, but I still like both.

I like how this author sets up this series. We always have a very interesting theme, this case the murder is inspired by the archeological/historical bog body found. The murder happened 10-ish years ago, and she will be solving a cold case. There are always some elements that give the vibes of supernatural and horror with vivid imagery that end up being dismantled and explained. I like the main character a lot and her reaction at the end. Has aome feminist elements as well and a homage to overdue justice.
Around the middle 50/60% mark I couldn't put it down anymore.
