Age of Vampires #4
Wrathful Mortals
The gods play havoc with our souls.
I’m torn in two.
The mark of the gods has bound me to my mortal enemy, and not even the most desperate yearnings of my heart can break this tie.
Between the slayer’s vow and the cruel tricks of Idun, my free will has been stolen from me.
All I can hope for now, is that my sister and I can find a path to salvation, but it feels as though we’re walking a path to our ruin instead.
I made my choice, and there’s no turning back.
The world has finally offered me the liberty I craved, so why does my heart keep begging me to return to the monster I left behind?
I sense a danger brewing on the horizon, something coming this way that we can’t escape. And even as my thoughts settle on a faraway land where we can leave our hellish past behind for good, I fear it won’t be that easy.
The games of the gods have only just begun.
***This is a dark, fantasy romance series by the authors of Zodiac Academy with all the enemies to lovers vibes – don’t go expecting a sweet vampire with sparkling skin and a tendency to watch you sleeping. These vampires are savage and bloodthirsty, and the slayer who hunts them will stab first and ask questions later. This war-torn fantasy world is a brutal bi*ch and only those 18+ have a chance at surviving the darkness lurking between these pages. There’s no well-meaning vampires snacking on Bambies instead of babies, and if they get their teeth into you, you’ll be damn lucky to escape with your life and panties intact. So grab hold of your slayer blade (wooden stakes have too many splinters) and get ready to defy the gods, because this is going to be one helluva ride***

"I'm caught between two powerful enemies in an ancient war. And I love people on both sides"
Montana and Callie have finally reunited but are pulled in opposing directions by the binds that tie them. Montana yearns for the man she might not ever see again whereas Callie is trapped between who heart wants and the bloodsucker she is bound to. Tension builds as the slayers and the vampires are being compelled to collide by the gods with centries age-old hatred burning within.
⤷ Erick and Montana like always are my favorite parts of these books. Even though we didn't get to read enough of them in this one, they were beautiful as always.
⤷ To be honest, I have not been the biggest fan of Magnar! Especially in this book, he really annoyed me, which is one of the reasons why I don't ship him and Callie that much. But let's see how things go with him in the next two books!
⤷ I love Callie as a character but yet again she also low key annoyed me in this book. Only because of her behavior towards the vampires, like Erick, which is completely understandable but at times I felt like screaming!
⤷ OMG, I love love love love love love love Julius! One of the best characters in these books and definitely the better brother!
⤷ AHHH THAT ENDING!!!! The cliffhangers just get more tense and stressful as the books continue and it's killing me slowly!
"Even in death I'll love him more profoundly than you could ever love anything"
These books have become my favorite series so far this year! Once again read this whole book in one whole sitting, it's impossible to stop!
Thank you, Caroline Peckham and Susanne Valenti, for providing a copy of this book for an honest review! :)

Genre: Fantasy, Dystopian, YA
Tropes: vampires, twin sisters, enemies to lovers, vampire × vampire slayer, ancient vampire family, forced proximity, vampire × human, ancient prophecy, Norse Gods, curse, love triangle
Series: Age of Vampires #4
Cliffhanger: Yes
Spice: 1/5 🌶
Rating: 4.5 ⭐
I don't know if I should be worried or happy, but I've finished it in less than a day. That's how invested I am in this story and that's the power Susanne and Caroline have over me. Loved this book so much that I'm not even pissed about the cliffhanger at the end; just a bit excited.
》》The Plot《《
So, Erik and Montana are married and forced apart when she decided to run away with Callie, Magnar and Julius, Callie is torn between the feelings Idun made her have for her new husband, Fabian and her true love for Magnar, Valentina is still out and about ruling the Biters, the twins are more decided than ever to break the curse by solving the prophecy and the Royals and the two slayers hate each other stronger than ever. It's a cocktail of love, lust, hate, revenge, magic and fate and I was here for every drop of it.
The chapters are shared between Callie and Montana, Erik and Magnar get their own chapters to relate more of what happened in the past and, for the first time in the series, we get chapters from their POVs that narrate the present as well.
》》Characters and Relationships《《
🧍♂️👩🏻 Julius and Montana
“That's the second time you've given me your clothes,” I said, recalling the robe he’d given me once.
His mouth pulled up at the corner. “Yes, if I continue to do so, perhaps you'll have me naked one day.”
His flirting will never not be entertaining and I absolutely loved his character. He had a weir sort of friendship while also jokingly flirting with her and low key seriously hoping Montana would stop having feelings for Erik. I liked that he understood in a weird way her feelings for the vampire, even if he didn’t agree with them.
👩🏼🧍♂️Callie and Julius
“You’re pretty good at this sneaking about stuff,” I said lightly.
“I’m pretty good at everything,” he replied, winking at me. “So when you’re ready to switch your attention to the better looking brother just let me know.”
“There’s a better looking brother? I didn’t know there were three of you.”
Since we're talking about Julius, his kindling friendship with Callie was amazingly sweet. He was there to knock sense into Magnar when he was an idiot regarding his feelings for Callie, was great at fighting along her side and was super supportive. I actually think his friendship with Callie is bested only by his friendship with Montana.
👩🏻🧑🏻💼 Montana and Erik
“We have the small issue of sitting on opposing sides of an age-old war."
“How about we try to rewrite our version of Romeo and Juliet so we don't end up dead.”
“I think this is the version where they go their separate ways.”
“That sounds like a rather boring version, Rebel. Don't pursue a career as a writer.”
No questions asked, my two favorite cinnamonrolls. They are sweet and I can't wait to see how their relationship will evolve after that ending, because now I'm demanding some romance here. I've waited four books and I want to see their ship sailing. I mean heloooooo, they are married so I think a wedding night is long past its due.
“You're making up for things now, aren't you?”
“Well, I hear Fabian is erecting statues of your sister in the Realms, would you like me to do the same? I'll make sure they're twice the size. That might make up for some of my bullshit.”
I was honestly on fangirl mode at their scenes, especially the one with the video call and I loved how Erik was so determined to do everything in his power to get her back and protect her, while also hoping to right the wrongs of his past.
👩🏼🤺 Callie and Magnar
“I love you, Callie. I was afraid to say it in case she took you from me. I was afraid to feel it too.”
“I used to be afraid of so many things. But you make me brave. And if we have to be brave to love each other then that’s what we’ll do. I won’t deny my heart any longer and you shouldn’t hide yours.”
It took them four books to state the obvious, but their relationship did have some obstacles, so no judgment here. They finally gave us a little steam and I generally enjoyed the two of them together, even if Magnar was a bit insufferable at times.
"One half of my soul was bound to Magnar. The other half bound to Fabian. So where did that leave me?
Stuck between two mortal enemies while waiting for them to destroy me."
And poor Callie had a lot of feelings to sort through, with this kind of a love triangle emerging between her, Fabian and Magnar. It wasn't a love triangle in the real sense of the word, since her feelings for the vampire were of pure lust forced upon her by Idun, but still, the entire situation was kind of tangled and I'm wondering where would that leave Fabian.
》》Favorite Scenes《《
🧍♂️👩🏻 Julius half-jockingly flirting with Montana
👩🏻🤺 Montana telling Magnar off for ordering Callie
👩🏻🦳🧝🏻♂️🧍♂️👩🏻Andvari and Idun having a fight over Julius and Montana
👩🏼🤺 Callie making Magnar yield
🤺👩🏻🧍♂️Magnar telling Montana that Julius has his eyes on her
"Julius has his eye on you, you realise?”
My cheeks flamed and I dipped my head, looking directly at the silver cross on my left palm. “Well he’s going to be disappointed.”
“He’s quite determined when he sets his sights on a girl.” He chuckled. “You would make a fine pairing. My brother has a good heart and a strong spirit. Like you.”
🧍♂️👩🏼 Julius telling Callie that he had never seen Magnar looking at a woman the way he looks at her
👩🏼🧍♂️Callie and Julius fighting togheter
🧑🏽💼👩🏼Fabian building statues of Callie
"Did I hear correctly that you're having a statue built of Callie Ford in Realm G?”
Fabian grinned widely. “Not just Realm G, Erik. All of the Realms! The whole of the human race will praise her name.”
“Fucking hell,” Callie muttered.
👩🏻🧑🏻💼Montana's video call with Eric
👩🏼🤺Callie using the ring to get some well spent time with Magnar
🧑🏻💼🧑🏽💼🧍♂️🤺The fight between Erik, Fabian, Julius and Magnar
👩🏼 Callie breaking Magnar's compulsion and becoming a true slayer
👩🏻Montana's new fate
》》Conclusion《《
I loved it and I couldn't put it down. I'm looking forward to the rest of the series and I'm glad I've picked it up. I can definitely see an improvement in the writing style throughout the books, so I think I'll love the next ones even more.
"And perhaps that would be our fate too. Endlessly different but eternally bound. The sun would set. And the moon would rise. The point at which the day met the night was always the most beautiful. So perhaps there was a chance for us yet."

This review is based on the book before the rewrite.
Full Review on my blog!
*a copy was provided by the author*
Eternal Vow is the fourth book in the Age of Vampires series and continues the story of Montana, Erik, Callie and Magnar.
These books are so beautifully written. These book take all your emotions on a ride.
Eternal Vow starts right where Eternal Curseleft off and it was so good. The story was so well-written, there were so many good plot twists and the book was really fast paced. The Age of Vampire series is just such a good vampire series and I cannot get enough of it. This novel was addicting, I read it in one sitting. I don't know what more I can say about this heart-stopping series and amazing characters.
Just like in all the other books in the series, we read in Callie, Montana, Magnar and Erik’s perspective. I’m glad that we have a few chapters in Magnar and Erik’s perspective because we get to know bits and pieces from their past. I also love reading in Callie and Montana’s perspective because they’re both so different.
The story is nonstop action as the two remaining slayers of the old world battle against the vampires and the vampires continue to try to find a way to break their curse.
Callie and Montana are torn apart fighting to reunite, and then their paths collide only to leave Montana and Erik clawing to get back to one another afraid to accept the painful choice of family or each other as a mutually exclusive. As a thousand-year feud comes to a head in this book we get tons of action and I was continually finding myself holding my breath but the bonds of sisterhood are stronger than the gods deigned to realize and Callie and Montana might not only prove to be the answer to the vampire curse but they at last know who the real enemy is - not the slayers or the vampires, but the gods who use them as toys.
Hands down this series is getting better and better with each book. This whole story-line is so unique, and the creativity behind the characters and the plot is just great! That's why I've really been loving Caroline's books, they're so different and unique, she is an author to look out for! I've never read anything from Susanne, other than this series so far, but I'm looking forward to more from her.
This series is something to look out for... SERIOUSLY. If you love vampire stories with amazing back stories and characters that are fleshed out, strong females, slow burning love stories that truly add to the story, action, twists and turns, then this series is for you. It literally has it all. I'm currently reading book 5, Eternal Night AND OOOOOH MY it's good! I highly recommend this series!

Everything had changed, but the world was still the same. The sun would set and the moon would rise.
5++ stars!!
I don't know how many more times I can say this, but these two ladies are masterminds at their craft. This book is my favorite of the series so far because the entire dynamic between the five main characters completely shifts in this novel, and we get to see how different relationships interact and play out. I LOVED finally being able to see Callie and Montana together. Their sisterly love and protectiveness for each other bled across the pages, and watching them stand up for each other to beings more powerful than they was a great testament to the sisterly bond.
Julius was another aspect I loved in this novel; his humor, easy friendship, and great spirit reminded me of Jameson, my favorite character from Caroline's V GAMES series. On the other hand, Magnar completely irritated me in this novel. He came across as an overbearing, uncaring, and callous asshole--especially after what he commands Callie (who he loves) to do and how he dismisses Montana's feelings. I didn't like him much after what he did to both sisters, but I guess he redeemed himself some in the end.
And talk about an explosive ending! So much craziness happened in the last 25% of the novel that my mind is still processing. My heart was pounding in my throat as the great battle that had been building between the slayers and vampires finally comes to fruition. The fight was epic with the gods interfering and wholly invested in an outcome that no one saw coming. I don't know that there was any clear winner, as there were losses on both sides and irreparable damage done. I feel that Erik and Montana have once again suffered the most, so I hope they get a tiny scrap of happiness and peace in the next novel, which I have downloaded and ready to go! Definitely recommend this nonstop and amazing series!
My Erik, fiercely protective and unapologetically in love with Montana his Rebel... :)
My Magnar, Blessed Crusader and badass Warrior of the Sun...
Erik and Montana, savoring their stolen moments together....

✨ARC Review✨
This series honestly has a hold over me. The vampire/human/vampire slayer themes of the book is a big YES from me🤝
If you have followed along on Callie’s and Montanas journey so far you will know that the sisters are reunited in this book, but their troubles only seem to be growing by second👀
Again this book is told from multiple POVs so we get an insight to Montana, Callie, Erik and Magnars thoughts.
Erik and Montana honestly own me body and soul at this point😮💨 This quote alone below only solidifies my love for Erik even further.
“Listen to me, Montana. Whatever happens here this night, know this. You returned the lustre to my world. You awoke me from a numbness I never thought I would escape. I love you for that and so much more besides. I know that my love is a noxious thing, and that the heart of a villain is worth little more than a jar of sand, but all I have to give is yours. Only yours.”
My poor Callie, we can see in this book she is in quite a situation with her head and heart been torn between her vampire husband Fabien and vampire slayer Magnar👀. Now don’t get me wrong I do like Magnar and Callie together but adding Fabien to the mix makes it even more delicious and the reason for this is yes I am a girl who is a sucker for the two guys fighting over a girl💅.
It wouldn’t be a twisted sisters book without the devastating cliffhanger and my god was my jaw on the floor. The last few chapters of this book is a wild one😅. I cannot wait to get the next book in my hands😩
🖤Tropes:🖤
- Human/Vampire, Vampire/Vampire Slayer
- Enemies to Lovers
- Slow burn
- Forced Proximity
- Vampire/Dystopian Romance
This is a spoiler free review, so I’d highly recommend to pick up this rollercoaster of a series because it will not disappoint
Overall I am enjoying this series and I am looking forward to reading more about Callie/Montanas journey. I am grateful to the authors for providing this e-arc for my honest thoughts✨
This series honestly has a hold over me. The vampire/human/vampire slayer themes of the book is a big YES from me🤝
If you have followed along on Callie’s and Montanas journey so far you will know that the sisters are reunited in this book, but their troubles only seem to be growing by second👀
Again this book is told from multiple POVs so we get an insight to Montana, Callie, Erik and Magnars thoughts.

YOU SPEND MOST OF THE BOOK AWAY FROM ERIK AND THAT IS JUST TORTURE. I waited for this book only to be mad he only showed up at the end. Actually coming from these authors I’m shocked at how short the book was I’m used to them writing mammoth novels.
The battle was epic. The ending was THRILLING. IM SO EXCITED. like damn I was waiting for this they are going to have amazing kinky vampire sex I can see it now. All I hope for is that the bite is fun now and doesn’t hurt so we shall see. Tbh I like when the twins are doing their own thing cause damn if I didn’t give two shits about Callie or magnar at all in this book. Mans needs to open up his eyes to the world of possibilities like the demons MAY have hearts?? Shocking I know considering they act like they do at least towards each other.
Need more Erik and Montana content can’t wait for the next one.
The gods fighting feels like weird foreplay now. Like are they together?? And this is a fun game they are playing?? Seems so. I’m very intrigued by our one god and his weird morality justifications. He seems chill and then boom totally evil. Our goddess also seems reasonable and then seems to be in obsession with a random mortal dude. Wack.
I devoured this in a day the next one better be over 400 pages.

I'm caught between two powerful enemies in an ancient war. And I love people on both sides.
Speechless, exhilarated, astounded is what Eternal Vow has left me feeling. The sisters were finally back together but their anguish had just seemed to have begun.
“I love you,” I whispered, wishing he could hear the words. But even if he couldn't, I needed to say them. I needed the world to lay witness to how deeply, fiercely and immovably I loved him.
I can’t stress how great this series is, and anyone that’s not reading it is severely missing out. I suck at reviewing the most favourite of my books. So please forgive me for this sorry excuse of a review because words cannot convey the greatness that is Caroline Peckham and Susanne Valenti.

actually really ended up liking this book!
the twins are finally reunited, and the story is seeming to progress.
i'm still so on the fence about callie and magnar, as a couple. and as individual characters.
erik, montana, and julius *chefs kiss*
not that i wanted anyone to die, but i do hate the trope of characters being beat to absolute shit, but because of plot armor they are still alive. happened like 80 times in the last couple chapters.
ALSO, im hoping we've seen the last of the "1000 years ago" chapters, they throw the pacing off imo and aren't all that integral to that plot. like just give the guys chapters in current day pov!
the ending was so good to me! the fight finally happening, monty turning into a vamp like i always thought would happen. and sisters of sun and moon on seemingly opposite sides. i do love how callie and montana are foil characters, cause it goes really well with the whole sun and moon shit. i'm honestly obsessed with prophecies so loving that
a lot of this book kind of was filler which is why i'm not giving it any higher of a rating. but i think it sets the next book up very nicely!
are we gonna have a lord of the rings moment where they have to destroy this ring to help end the curse...?
hehe

1.5 stars purely bc I already exist on a planet where men fight wars or politic based on petty feuds and power trips that fuel their egos … so I just don’t need to read a whole book about it.

This is the book series equivalent of the guy you cannot stand but the dating pool is shallow so you keep trying, but know he’s gonna be tragic in bed, and he treats his mom like shit.
I’m just hoping I can muscle through the last couple books - but I know I should just block delete him.

pooled ink Reviews:
On one hand I feel incredibly honored to be an advanced reader for these books but on the other hand I wish I'd waited until they were all published so I could just binge-read all six books haha! This series is so addicting!! I was clinging to the edge of the cliff after book 3 and inhaled each page in this one. Now I'm left desperate to know what will happen next!
At first, sisters Callie and Montana are torn apart fighting to reunite, and then their paths collide only to leave Montana and Erik clawing to get back to one another afraid to accept the painful choice of family or each other as a mutually exclusive. As a thousand-year feud comes to a head in this book we get tons of action and I was continually finding myself holding my breath but the bonds of sisterhood are stronger than the gods deigned to realize and Callie and Montana might not only prove to be the answer to the vampire curse but they at last know who the real enemy is - not the slayers or the vampires, but the gods who use them as toys.
If you're interested at all in dystopia with a paranormal/vampire twist then you seriously need to consider Age of Vampires as a series to be your fix because it is so good!

ARC REVIEW
5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
‼️SPOILERS IN REVIEW‼️
The twisted sisters left us hanging on a cliff yet again!!
While Montana’s heart is torn, and she misses Erik deeply, she refuses to abandon her sister. Even if that means being surrounded by people that could never understand her feelings towards him or the other vampires she’s began to see humanity in. Callie begins to feel the pressure of so many bonds and rules keeping her at bay, denying her the one thing she’s always wanted more than anything: freedom from the oppression of others. No matter how much she loves Magnar, she’s getting really tired of having to call him ‘Elder’, and not being able to do what she really wants with him… if you catch my drift.
Neither sister understands what the other feels, and while they’re delighted to reconnect, it’s apparent it’s harder than they thought to overcome their newfound differences.
Over the course of this fourth book, it becomes clear that the war between vampires and slayers is over centuries of years old, and twins aren’t enough to sway neither the slayers nor the vampires. This war between the two will happen - and they will be caught up along in it.
Julius easily became one of my favorite characters, and his addition to the series was a breath of fresh air. After that cliffhanger of an ending, I’m worried about all my babies. Thankfully we don’t have to wait too long for the next one!

WOW ! I am so excited to learn that this is going to be a 6-book series.
This novel and the 1000 year battle definitely comes to a head within these pages. These characters, their trials, their love and hatred. This novel seriously has everything you would ever need in a series.
I am floored at how seamless Caroline and Susanne are able to mesh their writing styles together to create such a fantastic series and world. If you did not know this was written by 2 authors, you would never be able to guess. Callie and Monty's strength and determination during this entire series is really inspiring. The characters have grown so much even just from the first novel, and I really enjoyed seeing more of the past from Erik, Magnar and even Fabian.
I also think one of my favourite elements of this story is that it centers around sisters, their forever bond and undying love towards each other. I feel like Caroline and Susanne really put their love and relationship into the pages of this series.
I am dying to know what is going to happen next. This installment had me at the edge of my seat. I was crying by the end of this novel.
This is a must read series for anyone and everyone ! Pick it up, you will become addicted; I promise!

. Magnar is despicable and views the girls as property. I hate him and Callie. Idk how Callie can stand to love him let alone be in the same vicinity as him. He’s so annoying and I skipped over his chapters and skimmed over Callie’s because I hate them both so much

3.5 stars
This one was better than the last, but it still has a decidedly YA feel to it that is not my favorite thing.
That said, the story is developing well, and it's an interesting story, and the characters are slowly coming around to grow enough to realize how much of their troubles have been because of their willingness to get dragged around by their nose rings.
I'm thankful that there isn't too much romantic obsessing in this series, although there is some. All of the characters seem inordinately young, even the ones that are over 1000 years old. They all seem a bit like they are 14 or 15.
Still, the story is interesting and I'm enjoying seeing how it evolves even if I step away from it for a while before reading more.

I think the best thing I can say about this series/book is that I am currently reading book 6, two books after this one. I have not been able to put this series down long enough to even write a review.
This series keeps taking so many twists and turns & I absolutely love it! And you might finally get some heat in this book 😉😘.
This book is also very much a pivot point in the series, you start to see much more clearly who the villain is & begin to see what character development is needed to hopefully defeat them in the end.
I am so glad I carved out the time to read this series, definitely one to read & I cannot wait to see where this story goes next.

I feel like I finally got to the part of the plot that I needed to happen for it to really get interesting to me. The sisters are together and especially the character development that Montana goes through is amazing. I just love all the scenes with her and Erik. I also love how we got multiple POV’s however I do find some more interesting than others. We also have a lot of blasts of the past.. of which some were a bit boring for me. The action scenes were great and I loved how fast paced this book is. Overall a great read and I can’t wait for what is next!

I give this 4 because I was pleased for the final wave,
but I am not impressed how the plot twists on Montana's ending .. how I wished the author had done more better ideas about how she turned into a vampire, with that fall she's still alive???
secondly, between the twins, I don't like the callie character she's portraiting selfless love toward her sister, and yet she didn't even care at all when the fight was going on.. her eyes were set only on magnar!!

Erik>Magnar. Yeah I said it, I’m team vampire over team vampire slayer.
Yet again I am left asking, what is wrong with these God’s? They got too much time on their hands, they really need a hobby other than tormenting the creatures of earth. Knitting, perhaps?

AHHHHHHH WHAT THE FUCK HOW WHY WHEN WHERE THAT WAS SO GOOD and I’m so happy I was right about that ring being the gods. I KNEWWW ITT. It’s always fun when you get something right☺️
Erik is still supremacy over everyone. All he’s ever done is try to break this curse or end it. He never wanted it. He’s the best of his siblings, fuck them. Fabian literally saying, “Erik is…the best of us I suppose”😐
FUCK IDUN “ I just don’t understand why idun wants to hurt us like this” ME TOO CALLIE ME FUCKING TOO the petty cunt. And WHY DO YOU WANT THEM AWAY FROM EACH?!?!
FUCK ANDVARI. Him LITERALLY willing to kill children.
HOW THEY ARE PLAYING WITH THE PEOPLE’S LIVES BC OF THEIR FEUD IS UNREAL!!!!🤬🤬🤬“The mark of partnership was meant for Erik and this girl to ensure she was turned. That he would do as she asked when she knew the truth about the prophecy. But you made your own work, didn’t you? You bound her sister to another of mine. What strange game are you playing, Idun? Is it just for your amusement, or is it to taunt me?”
the hate these sisters can create within me for characters in unparalleled
Julius and his fine cheeky ass😏”that mark on your palm must be causing you a lot of trouble” “someone’s getting in your head Magnar. Whoever could it be?” “Dick punch, harsh”😂“I’ve never seen a novice fight the compulsion like that so soon after taking their boat. You must really want to get in my brother’s pants.“ “hi, I’m Headward” while holding a severed head😂. “Ugly? OK, I’ll go fetch Magnar“ “He’s laid more than a hand on her“ “I taste like a rainbow 🌈 “ I wish I could just pin everything Julius says on a wall, his cheekiness is so hot.
Don’t even get me started on his cuteness🥹giving Montana his jacket. “I am nothing if not a man of my word. But don’t ever ask that of me again”😫pulling up the security footage so tana could see Erik.
THE WAY I WANTED ALL OF THEM TO FUCKING FIGHT THE GODS!!!!!! they need to realize they need each other sooner bc it’s the only way to end everything AND THEY STILL DONT GET IT except for the perfect Erik Larsen.
Them finally finding some semblance of peace on the island then it being ruined “I saved him; I sent him back to you-“ “you sent back a demon” “you killed him?” “You killed him” *BALLING😭😭😭”
I FELT SO BAD FOR VAMPY!!!!!!! I’m glad ignorance is bliss bc I don’t wanna know what made Vampy get banished. He just wanted some blood with his little lisp and toe boot sucking🥺poor Vampy. He would’ve made a cute pet or something
Magnar…damn. You so sweet but are so dense sometimes. He left her outside in the freezing rain🥺. Then Julius scolding him saying exactly how Callie was feeling!!!!!!! “you’ve been telling me how much she means to you and get your actions tell a different story. You could have killed her today, Magnar. And all because you’re angry with her for something she can’t control!“ “and yet when she tried to explain the reason why she had to ask that of you, you abused the trust she put in you when you became her mentor“ PREACH AND SWOON
MONTANA IS SUCH A SASSY BITCH WE LOVE HER HERE “Oh, I forgot to dish out a bowl for you. Maybe you can come in my sister to do it for you“
Fabian bringing Callie to his homeland🥹still disgusting the idea of them, but this was sweet. And the fact he had tattoos, DAMN THATS NOT FAIR!!!! Then his DREAM🍆his dreams really are just lust, but then he just melts for her. It’s so cute but so sad at the same time. I feel like the sisters were really just looking for ways to try to make us be on Fabian’s side for the later books where I’m guessing everybody bans together to end the curse. And he brings her back Fury!!!🥹🥰🥹aweee. I can’t wait till their rune thing is lifted just so I can get Fabian’s reaction to every single thing he did😂😂😂
Poor dude really was a lovesick puppy tho. Building statues of Callie in all the realms🙄🫥
I love how the vampires are a little bit different in this series. It’s hard to come up with new concepts in this day and age. So for things to be similar with some cool differences is exciting! Like how the can literally reattach all limbs and stuff including the head, how tattoos can’t stick and are pushed out of their bodies. That’s cool 😎
The roasts sprinkled throughout send me😂“The list is endless Count Fabian. You placed a crown upon your head and your foot upon our backs. How could you ever think I could love you?“ “Even decapitated, I am sure my wife would still prefer me to you, Julius Elioson, so how about you listen to someone she actually gives a shit about?“
Magnar teasing Aelfric and Elissa with their marriage😏😂🥹💗aweee. And she is AWESOME WITH HER OCEAN WATER POWERS SOOOO COOOL!!!
Them going to lady liberty. The literal symbol of freedom. How symbolic….wooooowwwwww
Magnar’s cuteness!!! “You shouldn’t have to put up with this“ “I’m fairly sure you’re worth it“
“That woman” directed towards Valentina, I agree Magnar, I definitely agree. Except I’d say something more along the lines of you gold digging bitch but that’s just me. Like seriously, what does she want him for anyway?
The adorable competitiveness between the brothers is so freaking cute, and how Magnar is so happy to have his brother back🥹🥹🥹
Really wasn’t shocking Julius was the one to spill the beans about tana’s true feelings tho🙄🫥🙄
MY BLOOD WAS BOILING FOR TANA BC ALL THE 3 OF THEM DID WAS TREAT HER LIKE A CHILD!!! “You’re confused” BULL FUCKING SHIT!!!
So mad Wolfe didn’t get the axe, so not fair. I mean, I got it but STILL!!!!
The fact that by the end callie STILL couldn’t get behind Erik. HOW MUCH PROOF DO YOU NEED?!?! I get it, he’s a monster, but you literally hear how he is with Tana, heard some of his story straight from his brother including the 200 YEARS LOCKED IN A CAVE! You know he tries to be better. You SAW HOW ANDVARI CONTROLLED HIM DURING BATTLE!!!!!! BITCH COME ON?!?! I get it, you’re supposed to hate them and their existence, but ERIK HAS BEEN PROVED TO YOU SO MANY TIMES AT THIS POINT!!!! And then to leave with calling him bloodsucker, that’s just cold😤
Tana and Erik’s first contact 🥰😍🥰😍 literally getting Valentina out of her head with “you know I don’t want anyone but you. I’ve never wanted anything like I want you. You’re the first girl to ever claim my heart“ SWOON SWOON SWOON
“I forgive you, Even if you can’t forgive yourself. You are good Eric, even if you done bad things”
Callie and Magnar finally getting it on with the ring heck yeaaaa!!!! I surprisingly liked the excess of tension in these books mixed with the lack or spice. It wasn’t cut out, but it wasn’t explicit which I surprisingly enjoyed a lot. It was so intimate and sweet. Tho…was that her first time? No protection?…cuuuuzzzz he definitely didn’t pull out sooo🤰🏼🤰🏼🤰🏼?!?!?!?!!!
This, then Julius comin in clutch with “You are both still bound by the vow, but if I didn’t know any better, I’d assume you’d both jusy screwed each other‘s brains out”😏😏😏noice
I KNEW THE JOINING OF TWO SOULS WOULD BE CALLIE AND TANA I CALLED IT I FUCKING CALLED IT!!!!!!!!!
ERIK AND TANA WITH THEIR DAUGHTER WAS THE CRUELEST THING I HAVE EVER SEEN BC IT WAS SO SO SO SO CUTE I WANTED IT SO BADLY!!!!!“Have you seen our daughter? I can’t find her anywhere“ “I’m right here Daddy!“ literally on his shoulders the whole time. I wanted to cry. “I don’t need flowers to light up the house; I have you“
Andvari really pushing Tana to be turned like DAMN!!! Made her throw herself off lady liberty and everything. “Warrior born and monster made. You know what to do, Erik. I have waited many years and you have suffered deeply. It is time to fulfill the prophecy.“ “Turn her“ “it is time for the games to stop“andvari. “one more game“Idun. “this is the last time” “I swear it. Fight for her monster, prove your love” LIKE WHAT THE FUCK DOES THAT MEAN?!?! WHAT WAS THAT FOR?!?! Did Idun want to see if they would come together by chance? Or does she just want entertainment bc BITCH THAT WASNT NEEDED!!!
SO HAPPY TO FINALLY GET THE BOYS POVS but why was I sad the first POV wasn’t Erik?😂I mean Callie got the first chapter ever, Erik should’ve gotten the first male one. IM JUST SAYING👐🏻still loved it anyway

Callie reaching her arms through the bars over Magnar🥺🥺🥺And not Fabian listening every single thing she would absolutely hate and would rather die than let happen to her😳😳😳that was just embarrassing dude

GO OFF TANA!!!!!!! : “Even in death I love him more profoundly than you could ever love anything. You’ll never know what that’s like and you don’t deserve to know. The people down there will mourn my death, but no one would ever mourn yours“ “I have your heart if I want it“ “no, you can’t have that. It’s the one thing you can’t control“
THEN CONTINUES WITH: I jumped
I have lived a life as a slave.
I have escaped that life as I promised my father I would.
I have been half of a whole to my beloved twin.
I have loved Eric as a monster. And I have loved him as a man.
So I have been free, I have had a place in this world and I have known the deepest kind of love my heart ever had to offer.
What have you done with your eternal existence Andvari?
PERIOD PERIOD PERIOD THIS IS SO POWERFUL💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
“She looked so peaceful, like she was sleeping”🥺
ERIK ON HIS MOTHERFUCKING KNEES FOR TANA WHEN SHE IS DYING HAD MY HEART IN A MOTHERFUCKING CHOKEHOLD I CANNOT!!!!!! “Just come back to me” EHH😫😫😫😫😫
Gotta add some levity before we start to wrap up:
be careful with him
I’m always careful
*Knocks head into cage
whoops. That was an unfortunate accident
Julius still making jokes after everything that had happened in that battle was everything, I can’t😂
Gotta end with these beautifully written words:
I was a slayer and she was a vampire.
The sun would set and the moon would rise.
You never found one without the other close by. Perhaps that would be our fate too, endlessly different but eternally bound.
The sun would set. And the moon would rise.
The point at which the day met the night was always the most beautiful.
Perhaps there was a chance for us yet.
Absolutely beautiful. I genuinely am shocked by how much I love this series. It’s so intense. The twisted sisters just know how to make you feel, feel for people, feel for the world. Beautiful. I don’t know why I’m so shocked, but I am. And I can’t wait to read everything of theirs.
Aannnnndd on to the next one😝😝😝

AHHHHHHH WHAT THE FUCK HOW WHY WHEN WHERE THAT WAS SO GOOD and I’m so happy I was right about that ring being the gods. I KNEWWW ITT. It’s always fun when you get something right☺️
Erik is still supremacy over everyone. All he’s ever done is try to break this curse or end it. He never wanted it. He’s the best of his siblings, fuck them. Fabian literally saying, “Erik is…the best of us I suppose”😐
FUCK IDUN “ I just don’t understand why idun wants to hurt us like this” ME TOO CALLIE ME FUCKING TOO the petty cunt. And WHY DO YOU WANT THEM AWAY FROM EACH?!?!
FUCK ANDVARI. Him LITERALLY willing to kill children.
HOW THEY ARE PLAYING WITH THE PEOPLE’S LIVES BC OF THEIR FEUD IS UNREAL!!!!🤬🤬🤬“The mark of partnership was meant for Erik and this girl to ensure she was turned. That he would do as she asked when she knew the truth about the prophecy. But you made your own work, didn’t you? You bound her sister to another of mine. What strange game are you playing, Idun? Is it just for your amusement, or is it to taunt me?”
the hate these sisters can create within me for characters in unparalleled
Julius and his fine cheeky ass😏”that mark on your palm must be causing you a lot of trouble” “someone’s getting in your head Magnar. Whoever could it be?” “Dick punch, harsh”😂“I’ve never seen a novice fight the compulsion like that so soon after taking their boat. You must really want to get in my brother’s pants.“ “hi, I’m Headward” while holding a severed head😂. “Ugly? OK, I’ll go fetch Magnar“ “He’s laid more than a hand on her“ “I taste like a rainbow 🌈 “ I wish I could just pin everything Julius says on a wall, his cheekiness is so hot.
Don’t even get me started on his cuteness🥹giving Montana his jacket. “I am nothing if not a man of my word. But don’t ever ask that of me again”😫pulling up the security footage so tana could see Erik.
THE WAY I WANTED ALL OF THEM TO FUCKING FIGHT THE GODS!!!!!! they need to realize they need each other sooner bc it’s the only way to end everything AND THEY STILL DONT GET IT except for the perfect Erik Larsen.
Them finally finding some semblance of peace on the island then it being ruined “I saved him; I sent him back to you-“ “you sent back a demon” “you killed him?” “You killed him” *BALLING😭😭😭”
I FELT SO BAD FOR VAMPY!!!!!!! I’m glad ignorance is bliss bc I don’t wanna know what made Vampy get banished. He just wanted some blood with his little lisp and toe boot sucking🥺poor Vampy. He would’ve made a cute pet or something
Magnar…damn. You so sweet but are so dense sometimes. He left her outside in the freezing rain🥺. Then Julius scolding him saying exactly how Callie was feeling!!!!!!! “you’ve been telling me how much she means to you and get your actions tell a different story. You could have killed her today, Magnar. And all because you’re angry with her for something she can’t control!“ “and yet when she tried to explain the reason why she had to ask that of you, you abused the trust she put in you when you became her mentor“ PREACH AND SWOON
MONTANA IS SUCH A SASSY BITCH WE LOVE HER HERE “Oh, I forgot to dish out a bowl for you. Maybe you can come in my sister to do it for you“
Fabian bringing Callie to his homeland🥹still disgusting the idea of them, but this was sweet. And the fact he had tattoos, DAMN THATS NOT FAIR!!!! Then his DREAM🍆his dreams really are just lust, but then he just melts for her. It’s so cute but so sad at the same time. I feel like the sisters were really just looking for ways to try to make us be on Fabian’s side for the later books where I’m guessing everybody bans together to end the curse. And he brings her back Fury!!!🥹🥰🥹aweee. I can’t wait till their rune thing is lifted just so I can get Fabian’s reaction to every single thing he did😂😂😂
Poor dude really was a lovesick puppy tho. Building statues of Callie in all the realms🙄🫥
I love how the vampires are a little bit different in this series. It’s hard to come up with new concepts in this day and age. So for things to be similar with some cool differences is exciting! Like how the can literally reattach all limbs and stuff including the head, how tattoos can’t stick and are pushed out of their bodies. That’s cool 😎
The roasts sprinkled throughout send me😂“The list is endless Count Fabian. You placed a crown upon your head and your foot upon our backs. How could you ever think I could love you?“ “Even decapitated, I am sure my wife would still prefer me to you, Julius Elioson, so how about you listen to someone she actually gives a shit about?“
Magnar teasing Aelfric and Elissa with their marriage😏😂🥹💗aweee. And she is AWESOME WITH HER OCEAN WATER POWERS SOOOO COOOL!!!
Them going to lady liberty. The literal symbol of freedom. How symbolic….wooooowwwwww
Magnar’s cuteness!!! “You shouldn’t have to put up with this“ “I’m fairly sure you’re worth it“
“That woman” directed towards Valentina, I agree Magnar, I definitely agree. Except I’d say something more along the lines of you gold digging bitch but that’s just me. Like seriously, what does she want him for anyway?
The adorable competitiveness between the brothers is so freaking cute, and how Magnar is so happy to have his brother back🥹🥹🥹
Really wasn’t shocking Julius was the one to spill the beans about tana’s true feelings tho🙄🫥🙄
MY BLOOD WAS BOILING FOR TANA BC ALL THE 3 OF THEM DID WAS TREAT HER LIKE A CHILD!!! “You’re confused” BULL FUCKING SHIT!!!
So mad Wolfe didn’t get the axe, so not fair. I mean, I got it but STILL!!!!
The fact that by the end callie STILL couldn’t get behind Erik. HOW MUCH PROOF DO YOU NEED?!?! I get it, he’s a monster, but you literally hear how he is with Tana, heard some of his story straight from his brother including the 200 YEARS LOCKED IN A CAVE! You know he tries to be better. You SAW HOW ANDVARI CONTROLLED HIM DURING BATTLE!!!!!! BITCH COME ON?!?! I get it, you’re supposed to hate them and their existence, but ERIK HAS BEEN PROVED TO YOU SO MANY TIMES AT THIS POINT!!!! And then to leave with calling him bloodsucker, that’s just cold😤
Tana and Erik’s first contact 🥰😍🥰😍 literally getting Valentina out of her head with “you know I don’t want anyone but you. I’ve never wanted anything like I want you. You’re the first girl to ever claim my heart“ SWOON SWOON SWOON
“I forgive you, Even if you can’t forgive yourself. You are good Eric, even if you done bad things”
Callie and Magnar finally getting it on with the ring heck yeaaaa!!!! I surprisingly liked the excess of tension in these books mixed with the lack or spice. It wasn’t cut out, but it wasn’t explicit which I surprisingly enjoyed a lot. It was so intimate and sweet. Tho…was that her first time? No protection?…cuuuuzzzz he definitely didn’t pull out sooo🤰🏼🤰🏼🤰🏼?!?!?!?!!!
This, then Julius comin in clutch with “You are both still bound by the vow, but if I didn’t know any better, I’d assume you’d both jusy screwed each other‘s brains out”😏😏😏noice
I KNEW THE JOINING OF TWO SOULS WOULD BE CALLIE AND TANA I CALLED IT I FUCKING CALLED IT!!!!!!!!!
ERIK AND TANA WITH THEIR DAUGHTER WAS THE CRUELEST THING I HAVE EVER SEEN BC IT WAS SO SO SO SO CUTE I WANTED IT SO BADLY!!!!!“Have you seen our daughter? I can’t find her anywhere“ “I’m right here Daddy!“ literally on his shoulders the whole time. I wanted to cry. “I don’t need flowers to light up the house; I have you“
Andvari really pushing Tana to be turned like DAMN!!! Made her throw herself off lady liberty and everything. “Warrior born and monster made. You know what to do, Erik. I have waited many years and you have suffered deeply. It is time to fulfill the prophecy.“ “Turn her“ “it is time for the games to stop“andvari. “one more game“Idun. “this is the last time” “I swear it. Fight for her monster, prove your love” LIKE WHAT THE FUCK DOES THAT MEAN?!?! WHAT WAS THAT FOR?!?! Did Idun want to see if they would come together by chance? Or does she just want entertainment bc BITCH THAT WASNT NEEDED!!!
SO HAPPY TO FINALLY GET THE BOYS POVS but why was I sad the first POV wasn’t Erik?😂I mean Callie got the first chapter ever, Erik should’ve gotten the first male one. IM JUST SAYING👐🏻still loved it anyway

WOW!!!!!!
Endlessly different but eternally bound. The sun would set. And the moon would rise. The point at which the day met the night was always the most beautiful. So perhaps there was a chance for us yet.
These books are so beautifully written. These book take all your emotions on a ride. One minute your laughing, then gasping, then wanting to cry or crying if your like me, angry. Every emotion they go through you feel it as well. Caroline Peckham and her sister Susanne Valenti have done such a wonderful job on telling the story from both sides. I love how we also have Magnar and Erik's stories thrown in there as well. It has been such a long time since I have read a great series like this.
My mind is blown. Again I can not say this enough each book is better and better. The last couple chapters were mind blowing. I was on the edge of my seat the fight was very well detailed I felt like i was there in the cage with the girls watching.
I am stuck on both sides as I have love for all these characters. I find myself rooting for each side knowing that wrong has been done to both sides.
I have been following this series since we were asked for opinions about the cover and I have to say I am glad I have. I have been captivated since chapter 1 of Eternal Reign. There is not a moment you feel bored at all. Book after book sucks you in. Just found out this is a 6 book series and I am glad because I am not ready to say goodbye to this amazing series yet.
So on to the good stuff right.
Montana- I feel for her she is stuck in the worse position one could ever find herself in, her sister hates vampires she is a slayer. Erik her love is a vampire and she is stuck in a war she didn't ask to be in. But the ending touched me. What she did out of love was so touching. My favorite part:
I have lived a life as a slave. I have escaped that life as I promised my father I would. I have been one half of a whole to my beloved twin. I have loved Erik as a monster. And I have loved him as a man. So I have been free, I have had a place in this world and I have known the deepest kind of love my heart ever had to offer. What have you done with you eternal existence, Andvari?
She is so strong and not like other characters she fights from the first book where she was scared she has grown and dares to take on the scary god. (can you tell she and Erik are my favorite)
Callie- She is so strong and tough, I am happy to see that she finally does figure out a way around all the chains holding her back from just being herself. She made a tough decision at the end.
All I can say is read this series. I can't wait for book 5 Eternal Night.
