Curse Breaker jumps right in where Oath Taker left off and takes the reader on another fast-paced adventure. Haven and the group of Solis she's been traveling with continue to fight their way through the Ruinlands to get the things they need to break the Curse. It seems like nothing can ever be easy for them, and Haven is trying to master her hybrid magick while they fight one battle after another. And she is determined to save Bell, no matter what it costs her.
In this book, we get a bit more insight into both Archeron and Stolas. We learn that they aren't just what they appear to be on the surface, and I enjoyed getting to know more about them. Bless Haven's heart, she has feelings for both of them. I'm curious to see how the love relationships play out in book three. We also learn more about Bell and about the prince who was responsible for bringing the Curse down in the first place, and we learn more about the Noctis and the Shade Queen from Bell's point of view.
Action, tension, attraction, a tragic true love story, and twists and turns you don't see coming. That's Curse Breaker, a smokin' good read and an excellent continuation of the Kingdom of Runes series. The third book cannot get here fast enough for me!
