If there was ever a book that could be the perfect ending to a long-running series, Blade Bound would be it. Blade Bound brings everything full circle, and without giving anything away, this is a must read. This series has been a roller coaster of emotions for me. Merit’s up and rock bottoms crushed me. I can remember sitting in the dentist office’s bawling my eyes out after reading about Ethan’s sacrifice for Merit, and the dental assistants asking what was wrong. That is just a tiny piece of how good this series is. Neill has created a whirlwind series that will hook readers from Some Girls Bite to Blade Bound. These two characters along with the others have been with me so long that I know as soon as the reality sets in that this is the last time I will ever read about them and their adventures.
I swore off this series after Ethan was "killed"- like I sat out several books in furious protest. So what he came back- you never kill the hot, alpha, master vampire hero. Ever.
I am SO glad I came back around last year and caught up on the action I missed. Blade Bound is the perfect ending to an overall amazing series. Ethan and Merit are no longer dancing around one another, they feel more solid than ever- they are at their best when they are loving and supporting one another!
This latest novel has all of the action and snark that Chicagoland fans have come to love. With the exception of Ethan's ridiculous death- this has been one of the best urban fiction series out there. Chloe Neill has a nack for writing interesting characters and action- mystery driven plots. It has been a pleasure to read this series. Also- great epilogue- a perfect ending, wrapping up everything nice and tidy. *swoon*
This is the final book in the Chicagoland Vampires series and Chloe Neill did an absolutely fantastic job with a story that has plenty of action and still completes the series. While this book does close the series it also leave the door open to more novellas or even a spin off series based on other characters.
Love the Chicagoland Vampires! Since this is book 13 and the last book in the series, don't start with this one. Go back and read them all. I'll be missing Merit and Ethan and mallocakes. Can't wait to see what Chloe Neill writes for us next. In the mean time I'll be re-reading the series.
