A Game of Malice and Greed

Product Information

In the end Drake and Cassius could only take the coin (where Kyra was trapped) and wished to make it impossible for dragons to find them, cuz they can’t fullfill their bargain and Azurea would come for them. I felt like I spent the first 350-400 pages trapped in various characters’ heads with only minimal action to break it up, and by the time I got to the interesting parts, my eyes had already glazed over. I did enjoy the story and will definitely continue with the series but that could be due to a nostalgic enjoyment of the Disney version of Aladdin as this does follow the major plot points of that movie very closely for the most part. When I started this book I thought maybe it would be a fight for Princess Austyn's love but so far there isn't a hint of that. We get our signature Twisted Sisters cliffhanger, or maybe cliffhangers in this case, but I felt a little overwhelmed.

This man has been through his own trauma and seeing him slowly starting to figure out who he is without the guard is exciting. I inhaled 6 Zodiac Academy books and 3600+ pages in 5 days, but it took me 10 days to finish this one book. The only mildly interesting character, and it’s because she’s an absolute crackpot who’s been locked up alone for so long she’s lost her grip on reality. By purchasing the item from Charlies Chapters Ltd you agree that you are happy to receive a revised edition.Bc she was locked in a coin for over a thousand years, she sadly doesn’t know correct words nor thing. AGOMAG is mysterious and twisty, with action and suspense, while also sprinkled with the Sisters’ signature humor. He’s cocky and confident, but struggles sometimes to not be as selfish as he claims -and because of this, he gets in trouble. Then at around 70% all main characters are finally at one place but it’s still boring as hell seeing as they don’t interact, at least not all four of them.

All of the game design, programming, and balance is done by a single person, so every bit of feedback is super helpful! At the end of AGOMAG, what happens to her is just cruel and I can't wait for her to be the boss lady warrior again.In my opinion, a well written villain is that who makes you want to torture and kill them slowly then revive them just to do it all over again and Magdor fulfilled that role to perfection. While I really liked A Kingdom of Gods and Ruin as an intro to this series, A Game of Malice and Greed left me a bit disappointed. Loyal to a fault this man here is as admirable as infuriating with his old fashioned beliefs and self-righteousness. CHARACTERS — I actually found all of the MCs to be quite interesting, especially Kyra, BUT there was an extreme amount of redundancy with respect to each of their character traits. Welcome to Osaria, land of the Fallen Fae and forgotten magic, a bustling city shrouded in mystery, where monstrous creatures lurk throughout the miles of surrounding dessert, and a gang known as “the 40” run the streets.

I'm fully prepared for them to both spoil and torture us with this loose fairytale retelling of Aladdin and Rapunzel that will follow multiple MF couples and will contain forbidden love, lost gods, and fallen fae! Cassius used to be a royal guard for the emperor and the princess until he saw the face of the princess before the unveiling of the princess face at her 21st birthday and got thrown into prison.There’s SO MUCH information that the Twisted Sisters have magicked up with their creative minds and fingers. I don’t wanna spoil anything, but I will say the only reason - and I mean this truly after sitting and stewing on it - the only reason this isn’t a perfect five star read for me was because I do feel like there was a lot of fluff/filler that could have been cut and not effected the story in any way. The first half of this book felt like a really long journey through mud and quicksand, and left me wanting to turn back.

She’s also pretty much in love with her, because how he is the first person since forever who let her be free and out of the coin and treats her like a human. It doesn’t have to be enemies to lovers all the time, but so far these (potential) relationships all feel so convenient. sure all of that happens, but as a gal who is 100% more invested in characters and relationships the plot didn’t do anything for me.Dear Miss Peckham, Miss Valenti, you can do so well with short stories and AKOGAR is a prime example of it so please, for the love of all the magnificent dragons and fairy tales, cut the crap, get to the point and please please please don't drag the story on unnecessary for the sake of more books( ehem, ZA ladies). It’s got the intricate and detailed world building you would expect from a fantasy read, with a complex plot that I look forward to unraveling. Drake has tattoos from the past when someone tortured him and these tattoos are kinda special I guess.
