Almost twenty years after the barrier between Earth and the Otherworld fell in the Fae Wars, Budapest is balancing on the precipice. A battle for dominance is brewing between the elite fae and the privileged humans in Eastern Europe. The prejudice between the sides is bubbling with hate and violence. Nineteen-year-old human, Brexley, has grown up in privilege, but not without heartbreak. After being orphaned, she is taken in by General Markos, living in a walled city rife with power grabs and ruthless political games. Then one night the course of her life changes, and Brexley is thrown into the most feared prison in the east. Terrorhaz--where you go in but don't come out. She must learn to live with the worst of fae and human criminals. The rule of hierarchy puts humans on the bottom, where the only way to survive each day is to make alliances with the fae.Here she meets the sexy, vicious legend, Warwick Farkas. A myth among man and fae. He is as brutal, cruel, arrogant, and as lethal as the lore says he is, ruling the prison with unchallenged authority. Brexley can't deny an intense draw to him, one that might cost her life.If The Games don't take her out first--A fight to the death where only one survives.

"Dnf this pretty quick. Brex was annoyingly boastful and hot and smart and perfect and thin and stronger than all the men. They all resented her strong hotness. Ugh I'm being really rude right now but I just dnf another story for the same thing. It's not flattering and makes me dislike the characters. And spoiler alert we all know she is going to hook up with the fae wolf they keep boasting about."

"Warwick was bland. Brexley, for all her talk, was often rather incompetent (her getting caught on the train was so frustrating because it reaaally could’ve been avoided). And wth is with everyone being ***** 24/7, no matter what they’re doing? The side characters were also rather undeveloped, and were kind of unrealistically generous to bexley, I suppose due to her being the main character. I don’t think I’ll read the next one. It seems it’s turning into a reverse harem."
"Okay, here is the thing... I read over 300 pages of nothing. Nothing happened in this book. <p> You guys always tell me: <i> "keep going, the second one is better", "keep going, it gets better", </i> but if we have to keep telling everyone it only gets better after we invest over 500 pages and 10+ reading hours, does it really? <img src="https://media2.giphy.com/media/5b5OU7aUekfdSAER5I/giphy.gif?cid=ecf05e47kp7kqgqxqqihkppdijs8rua6p3a5p93gppscev6l&rid=giphy.gif&ct=g"/> <p> It's counter productive to sit down to write a fantasy trilogy if only 1/3 of it is worth reading. I am currently doing a fantasy month and I am more disappointed by the second with all the popular reads. Anyways, here are things that ****** me off in this book: <p> > The fae keep repeating "This little human is going to kick your ass" out loud, because they are not only her enemies but they also need to reinforce the <i> I am not like other girls </i> stereotype otherwise this wouldn't be a fantasy book. <p> > The constant ass kissing from people who supposedly hate you doesn't add up <p> > This reads like YA fanfiction <p> > The guy looked at her from a distance for the first time and she felt her p#ssy was being licked (yeap, that is legit the sentence we got) home boy is a magician <p> > There was no connection or reasoning behind her attraction for him. Oh he is the big bad wolf, everyone is scared of him... All he did was stare at her from a distance and apparently mind lick her p#ssy. This felt a lot like insta love. <p> > Terrible world building, mediocre writing that felt confusing, out of synch and choppy. She talked and talked and talked but didn't say a thing. <p> > The female main character had zero personality, as usual. <p> > The male main character is laughable, at the end of this book they end up at the savage lands. Bit of a cliffhanger, maybe I will pick up the second one, maybe I won't. We will see."
