When Villains Rise

Look, I'll admit that the second book was shaky to me, but this last book pulled it back. The first is my favorite of the three, but this one was also really darn good and difficult to put down. Truly a story of villains.
ALSO one of those rare books with no romance. I wouldn't say Kovit and Nita are just friends, but... yeah. I ended up loving them and their development.

Recommend if you are looking for a dark story where the main characters are NOT heroes in any sense of the word, urban fantasy setting that doesn't take place in the US, and does offer questions about morals, personal beliefs, and what does vengeance cost.
