Romasanta Father of Werewolves: Review
Whoa boy, this was an incredible read.
After Reviewing the first book in the Cedric Series, I jumped right into this one, and continued to dive until the end, cause it really enjoyed it that much.
This novel showcases a world where fantasy, myth, and a bit of magic collide. But unlike the first book in the series which focuses on the lives of two increasingly important characters, Romasanta focuses on the titular Werewolf who has a much larger impact on the world than Cedric.
From humble beginnings as a farmer that leads to an incredible bad string of luck, Romasanta finds himself sharing his body with Fenrir the great wolf, and finds himself on a quest for revenge against Merlin, the man who made him this way. Alas, Romasanta’s bad luck does not stop, or even start there. On a quest to reunite with the woman he loves, this poor man becomes the most powerful of all Werewolves. Also due to the fact that Vampires are a mutation of the Werewolf curse, he is the master of their race as well.
With an action packed adventure, cunning Demons (Like Lilith who never fails to disappoint in this book) and an extremely manipulative sibling, I could not put this book down from start to end. It certainly helps that I am a sucker for seeing prior events with more puzzle pieces revealed. For those who have read Cedric the Demonic Knight, this book offers more insight into those same events and one can really see the scope and intrigue that Cedric failed to notice while he was strung along in the previous book.
All in all, this book addresses some key ideas such as what love means as well as how one is and is not human. The emotional impact is a nonstop experience and I highly recommend this novel to just about anyone. The romance that I tried to avoid a bit more in the first book did not distract at all in this sequel. The high fantasy elements are, of course, my preferred draw in this novel, but there is something to find for everyone within its pages.
I cannot wait for “Oracle” which will be the next book.
