Pestilence

"Laura Thalassa's 'Pestilence' takes the apocalypse and gives it a surprising romantic twist. Imagine a harbinger of doom who is as brooding as he is devastating—enter Pestilence, the first of the Four Horsemen. Thalassa crafts a tale where sparks fly amidst the ruins, blending romance and ruin in a way that is both enthralling and unsettling. Her writing is sharp, the characters unforgettable, and the plot as relentless as, well, a plague. 'Pestilence' is a ride through the end of the world that's impossible to put down. Five stars for making the apocalypse weirdly swoon-worthy."
