Whilst ALIT followed the groups initial curiosity towards their parents tragic backstories and all the magical / erotic behaviorisms of Thornchapel… FOS shows a significant level of maturity. In fact, I’d say it’s for a very select few that probably enjoy getting absolutely obliterated by a story about a group of six champagne-drinking, ritual-fucking, angst-driven, orgytastic adults. BUT before all of that, let me try and sell you on this series.įirstly, it’s not for everyone. I have been chomping at the bit waiting for this release ever since I finished A Lesson in Thorns and while I can happily say that Sierra Simone delivered, there were quite a few problems I faced during the latter end of the novel. In short the longing in this book will drive you insane. Sierra Simone definitely does not disappoint with her kinky, depraved and wickedly delicious scenes between Saint, Auden and Poe but I do have to say the monologue and character development I got to experience with Saint’s storyline was breathtaking. The change in POV was refreshing and Saint now owns a large section of my heart. The sensuality and carnality of the plot is something so unique to this series and I stand by my statement that the storyline is just as worthwhile as the erotica.įOS begins almost exactly where ALIT ended but now we also get to see the history behind Auden and St. When I started reading the first couple of chapters, I had to physically break myself away from the text and slow down just so I could draw out every page. A storyline that slowly hypnotizes you and characters that will make your heart swoon.

It’s hard not to call this series captivating… Akin to its predecessor, FOS completely consumes you from start to finish. Then, everything seems fine but you really have no idea what else is in store for you. You never know when your inching up and nearing the edge… and then all of a sudden your stomach drops, your heart is light and you’re descending at rapid speed. Stepping into Thornchapel is like being blindfolded on a rollercoaster. “If I could rearrange the world for you, I would,” he says.
