I loved the premise of the story as well, since it brings them together for the whole book, and provides awesome dialogue and interactions. They were a great couple after they went through their obstacles (and even during). I loved seeing her go head to head against Pestilence and come out stronger than ever. Sara herself is a super resilient and strong heroine that packs a punch. So, no, Sara, of all the word I’d use to describe you, fascinating would definitely be one of them.”

“You have managed what no one else has: you have awoken my heart. It makes his character development all the more special, because he starts trusting and loving her, ultimately gaining human emotions and truly learning mercy.

It’s seemingly the end of the world, but Sara, a firefighter, is ready to defend her town by killing the horseman. But after trying again recently, I ended up really enjoying it!

Only, the longer she’s with him, the more uncertain she is about his true feelings towards her … and hers towards him.Īnd now, well, Sara might still be able to save the world, but in order to do so, she’ll have to sacrifice her heart in the process.Ĭheck out my review on GoodReads over here!Īt first I tried to pick this book up and it wasn’t up my alley for some reason. Now the horseman, very much alive and very pissed off, has taken her prisoner, and he’s eager to make her suffer. Too bad no one told her Pestilence can’t be killed. Unless, of course, the angelic-looking horseman is stopped, which is exactly what Sara has in mind when she shoots the unholy beast off his steed. When Pestilence comes for Sara Burn’s town, one thing is certain: everyone she knows and loves is marked for death. They came to earth, and they came to end us all. Four horsemen with the power to destroy all of humanity. They came to earth–Pestilence, War, Famine, Death–four horsemen riding their screaming steeds, racing to the corners of the world.
