I love reading books that tell the same story, from a different perspective, especially if it is one of my favorite (like Angelbound). You know what is going to happen and what comes next, so you just enjoy seeing your favorite characters from different eyes. I expected the same from Lincoln and was very surprised. It's set in the same time and it follows loosely the events from Angelbound, but there is so much more. And it is so awesome. 💚💚💚💚💚 (When I re-read the story, I saw that the author made a note about it in the beginning, but I didn't see it- I usually just skip to the story itself. :))

Lincoln is one of my all-time favorite characters, he is seriously bad-ass, Prince of the Thrax, can kick any demons ass and is just the best. Following his journey in Angelbound, we get to see a lot more of him, the way he is scheming behind king's back, the way he is basically ruling the Thrax, how sweet he actually is and how much he did for Myla even before they were together. I was so pleasantly surprised that there was a valid reason for his supposed demon hatred and it's so sweet. :)

There is a lot of political intrigues (which I love), Lincoln is working hard to make an alliance with Thrax houses, so he can fight Acca house - they seriously suck. :) And then there is another (whole new) mysterious threat-to Thrax and Myla.

And the writing, it so addicting, I couldn't put the story down and read it in one sitting and then I re-read it right away. I love the fact that both stories: Angelbound and Lincoln can stand on its' own.

It's seriously so good. Highly recommend it!

Here's the perfect opportunity to get in on the series if you have not had the chance to dive right in. Sometimes some of us just need the viewpoint of a male. Just so we could see what was going on in his head. Well, this one right here lives up to the expectation of all that was capture in Anglebound (Myla's viewpoint).

It's hard tellingyou how good this version of events are without giving in to tell you more about what you will find. Seeing things from Lincoln's POV gives you more insight to what he was feeling and thinking, and how he viewed things that were taking place. If I would say anything it would be to read book one (Anglebound) of this series. Then make sure you read Duty Bound. Then jump right in and get the full picture. This one installment helps to make the already rich series even more.

I have come to love the way that Christina Bauer have cultivated her character, integrated the demons, humans, and made them have tiers of society, and the depths of the world she has built around them. You will get a full sensory experience with the way they all come together to provide the movie like experience right in your head.

I feel like I often have to revisit this series after long breaks. Not only because I want to space it out, but because the books often come out of order, and I don't want to miss anything. This book, is either book 1.5 or 2, depending on where you look, and it's basically Angelbound, the first book, but from Lincoln's point of view. That being said, I was a little confused why Duty Bound was at the beginning of this, when it was already released as it's own novella and I had already read it, but I did enjoy reading this new installment.

Lincoln has a cushy life as the Prince of Thrax, but also a hard life as probably the best demon hunter out there. It begins with him doing what he does best, fighting demons, and trying to adjust to his new life in Purgatory, surrounded by Quasi-Demons and Ghouls. He's not very happy about it, but what can he do? He's about to begin a loveless marriage with a girl he hardly knows. His life seems bleak, that is, until he meets Myla, a Quasi-Demon warrior girl with a dragon scale tail who begins to sneak onto his property to fight demons.

He's immediately drawn to her, though his family's disgust with demons changes his judgement. He knows he must protect her from the wrath of the Tithe, as Prince of the Thrax, but doesn't know how to without causing problems with his own people. That's when he begins hatching secret plans to keep her around him without seeming too obvious. He knows that she's the girl for him, no matter what his people think.

I was excited to see more than just a novella with Lincoln as the viewpoint, as I really enjoyed getting to know him better. I remember him being kind of quiet in the other books, though he is a big part of them, but I was glad to see there's more to him than just hanging around Myla and being the Prince of Thrax. This book was kind of a long read, not only because of the novella at the beginning, but because of every event in Angelbound being told from the other side. I felt like I had read it all before, and wasn't impressed when I started the book, but as it turned out I really got into it. I can't wait to see what the rest of the series has in store for me, as well as Myla and Lincoln.

If you're into books about the supernatural such as Angels, Demons, Quasi-Demons, Ghouls, Ghosts and more, set in Purgatory, Heaven, Hell, Earth as well as the newly added Dark Lands, than this series is the one for you. I don't think you have to have read Angelbound to really get what's going on in this one, but I think if you want to really see the full picture, you should. Definitely check it out if you think it's something you'll like.

Thanks for reading!

This is the first book that I've read by this Author.
I was a little confused at the beginning of the book. But i kept reading because the story was really interesting. (I'm thinking that I should go back and read the first story.) But with that said....
I really enjoyed this book, it was very interesting.
I've never read anything like this.
The story line was great and so was the world building. The characters were great!

I've read the first half of this book before, and I really enjoyed the second half. I really like reading books from the Love interest POV. It adds an extra layer to the story that only comes from seeing "the other side" of things.
