Our view
“Bloody Rose” keeps the style and atmosphere of “Kings of the Wyld” and gives more room to personal drama, tragedy and secrets. Monsters arrive early and the big battles are still here. Some readers find the cast less memorable than the first book’s, and some feel that too many storylines running side by side make it chaotic. The closing chapter and epilogue leave some eager for more.
