Being named Matriarch when you‘re one of the youngest members of the family is not an easy role. How do you lead your family in a time of need when you‘re still struggling to find yourself? Voya definitely had some big shoes to fill in this beautiful sequel to Blood Like Magic.

BiblioBoyd While I‘m no Matriarch, I have lived through being employed in a position of leadership as a young female, and I can tell you the struggle is real. Liselle Sambury does a wonderful job in expressing the emotions and challenges of being in such a position. 3w

2nd book in this duology. This is the conclusion of this story but I can‘t say much without spoil the first book story. I liked this book more that the first one because I saw more action, intrigue, suspense and magic but it is still a YA book where the magic system is not complicated and characters are young. It is probably okay but I‘m rating it as a YA and bc I enjoyed it but is not great 3⭐️ #BlackHistoryMonth #BlackAuthor I like the cover 💙

In the follow up to Blood Like Magic, Voya has to move forward in an important role to try to protect her family from those who fear and hate magic and those who wield it. I really loved this duology, particularly the mixing of magic with a near-future world that includes implanted tech. I thought it was a great blend. They definitely need to be read in order. I look forward to more from Sambury.
