Sabotage by Sherrilyn Kenyon (Shadows of Fire #1)

Title: Sabotage Author: Sherrilyn Kenyon Series: Shadows of Fire #1 Number of Pages: 228 Pages Genre:  Young Adult Sci Fi & Action Publisher:  Oliver-Heber Books Date of Original Publication: August 22, 2023 ISBN: 978-1648394805

Sabotage is the first book of Sherrilyn Kenyon’s Shadows of Fire series. Kenyon has a long series called the Dark Hunter series which is an adult series. This series is based off of a character from that series and his adventures when he was young.

This series is a young adult read and I would say early early teenage. It’s an extremely easy read yet it’s worth it as it helps provide extra detail for her Dark Hunter series. This book does not have too much resolve in it but it has plenty of action and sets up perfectly for another book. So far she has released four for the series.

I would recommend reading the Dark Hunter series and then this one to supplement it.

My thoughts on Sabotage (Shadows of Fire 1)

After months since it was released, I finally read it!! (hence my return to this side blog after virtually abandoning it for years 😅) But before I did, I reread all the chronicles of Nick books because it had been soooooooo long since last time I read those that I was sure there were details I'd forgotten. Oh boy! How right I was about that!

Anyway, back to Sabotage. I love it so much. It felt good to be back with the whole gang. I've missed them. The book is a nice set-up for the next chunk of the overall story, but it was too short for my liking! It was over just when it was getting interesting 😞 But after waiting so long for it, I take what I can get!

❗ spoilers ahead ❗

One thing I'm grateful is that we finally had Kody's original name spelled out for us. I know it's silly and Sherri had confirmed it a while ago, but it's the biggest pet peeve I had with CoN. I drove me crazy, absolutely insane, that her name kept changing basically with every new book that was released. I know it's a me thing, and most people couldn't care less about it. I know!! Don't @ me.

My baby Styxx was in it!!!! And for what I can guess he'll continue to be in the series for a bit. i have no words for how happy that makes me!!! But I resent that we didn't see a father-daughter hug!! We had uncle-niece's reunion, but not daddy-kid's?! How's that fair? 😣

And I cannot believe Cyprian's entitlement! OMG! Seriously dude! I mean, I get that as Malachai, he's an angry guy and craves to be loved the way Nick is loved, but like take it with your mother who was the one who sexually assaulted your father in a dream and then she hid you from him. and treated you like garbage. You shouldn't take with the guy that never knew of your existence until like half an hour before you killed him. just saying!

And yes, everyone should be smothered with love as Nick is, but you can't demand it. It sucks when the ones who should love and cherish you don't (i can't even imagine how bad bc I've been lucky enough to have a loving family), but you can't throw a 4-year-old-like tantrum, so massive that transcends time.

"If I don't have it, he can't either... I have to kill him" like what?!! 🤨

My question is, Was Cyprian conceived before or after the curse was broken? Because if was before, it could explain his attitude somewhat, but if it was after, dude! you have no excuse!!!

And now *sighs* I get back to the waiting for the next book.

Shadows of Fire

The saga continues…

The world of the Dark-Hunters® is unlike anything you’ve every seen before. It’s dark. It’s gritty. It’s dangerous…

And it’s a whole lot of unexpected action and snarky comebacks.

My name is Cyprian Malachai and I should have never been born. I know it. My mother knows it and most of all, my father, the Ambrose Malachai is more than aware of it. Every creature under the sun is out to end me.

But I don’t go down easy. Anyone who’s ever fought a Malachai knows that fact.

My father thinks that he’s heard the last of me . . .

He hasn’t. Our war is only on an interlude. It’s about to heat up and I have a massive grudge to settle. One that is far from over . . .

==========================================

**Please note that Shadows of Fire is a four book continuation of the Chronicles of Nick®, and is a Young Adult spin-off series from the Dark-Hunter® novels

There are 4 books in the Shadows of Fire series:

Will of Iron
