Review – For the Birds

For the Birds book cover

Title:

For the Birds

Series:

Lana Harvey, Reapers Inc. #3

Author:

Angela Roquet

Genre:

Fantasy

Blurb:

Lana Harvey isn’t just any reaper. She’s the new captain of the Posy Unit, a specialty group dedicated to harvesting mass quantities of souls from natural disaster sites, battlefields, and the like. The new title didn’t come without a price though. Lana made some promises along the way, and now it’s time to follow through… even if that means putting herself in the path of the three Fates, a fickle and mighty force to be reckoned with. The Fates run a soul recycling plant in Limbo City, and if Lana isn’t careful, they just might recycle her.

Review

3.5stars rating
Worldbuilding:

Was good, all scenes and environments were clear and well detailed.

Character development:

Was good. Lana is still on the outs with Gabe (*sniff*) and finds out that being a captain is a lot of work! Having Bub as her lover does bring its own set of issues, but well… he has redeeming qualities 😉
Relationships change between our cast members, some for the better, others not so much.

Pacing & Flow:

Were not as good. I must admit, this book felt a lot slower than the earlier ones. I was trudging my way through pretty much half of the book before it got going (yay).

Final Thoughts:

All in all, a very long, slow start but it got a lot better. Having read the blurb for book nr 4 I have my suspicions… but still, fingers crossed it’s not that. Will surely not wait that long to read that one!
