Why, then, are you constantly seeking freedom and light?" Fortuna Sworn is the last of her kind. Her brother disappeared two years ago, leaving her with no family or species to speak of. She hides among humans, spending her days working at a bar and her nights searching for him.

And Collith! He’s so mysterious and aloof and in control. I don’t understand some of his actions and inactions but feel like Collith knows what he is doing. He is a mask of neutrality, and I just want to see underneath it! At some point, he and Fortuna are going to let their guard down, and I can’t wait!

What Makes the Book Stand Out?

Other characters equally contribute to the brooding atmosphere of the dark in the book. Gothic and all-grippy plot The “Fortuna Sworn” book is apprehension mongering, seductive and tasty. For some readers, it may even appear bloodcurdling and horrid.

Warning: there are scenes of abuse, whipping, kidnapping, and “poisonous” and destructive relationships.

Can you imagine a girl in pajamas drinking Vanilla Chai and writing a mesmerizing dark story? That’s Kelsey Sutton, an author of magical realism and urban fantasy books. Fortuna is very impulsive in the first two books, and I like how Fortuna is not as ruled by impulsivity in this one. She’s become more patient and is as compassionate as always. Fortuna is a woman who will do anything for those she loves, and family is everything. She recognizes her rash actions and decisions and even tries to rectify some of them and repair the relationships she splintered. That’s not to say, she’s not impulsive. Fortuna still acts without thinking, and sometimes she needs to stop and think about the ramifications of her actions. However, she’s clearly changing. She’s showing so much emotional growth, and she doesn’t even realize it.

At least, that’s what Fortuna thinks. Then the game leads her to an opponent who doesn't fight with magic or swords. An opponent that not even she can beat. But is it saving indeed or is it just another sort of “kidnapping” of her thoughts, her will, and her life?
