Still crying about this book. This was a series where the stakes were so high thay you couldn’t really see how there could be a happy ending for each book, but somehow Laura Thalassa made it work. And this book was no exception. This was a perfect end to the series. It was so sweet and emotional and sexy and I loved it and this whole series so very much.
This series is hands down my favorite of all time and I say that with confidence. I have 3 editions, and this new release makes 4. Everything was perfect. If you haven’t read The Four Horsemen yet, I don’t know what you’re waiting for.
I don’t even know what to say. I’m so sad it’s over but I loved Death so much. And Pestilence was too pure 😭 This series means everything to me and the ending was just perfection.
I'm going to go ahead and review the series as a whole, because there are common themes that run throughout that are uniquely explicated in each book.
Where do I even start? First, that I totally understand the hype about this series now. It’s one of those series that grabs you by the throat and takes you along for one hell (pun intended) of a ride.
Each FMC brings different elements of humanity to the fore that speak to their angelic counterparts in profound ways. And the ways in which author Laura Thalassa explores idea about God, humanity, frailty, good, and evil are so intriguing. Though these were written starting in the “before” times, Thalassa’s work seems all the more prescient today.
If you want your mind and heart challenged, if you want to experience the beauties of love and human nature (and their ugliness, too), then please, please read this series. It is masterful.
Such a good book, the back and forth between Death and Laz was beautifully heartbreaking. This was definitely the most emotionally impactful of the Four Horsemen series, and I am so happy to have a digital copy now! Lazarus is condemned to watching those around her fall at the hands of Death, but Death could not escape the impression Laz would make on his heart. This entire series is a MUST READ, but especially this final book.
I was fortunate enough to receive an advanced reader's copy of Death by Laura Thalassa from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
I am a big fan of Laura Thalassa and I very much enjoyed the first three novels about Death’s “brothers.” Tall order to hope book four would be equally awesome, but Laura Thalassa pulled it off.
Death is a fast-moving tale that follows the final, most terrifying - and possibly most compassionate, horseman of the apocalypse, his reluctant beloved, zombies, heartache, scheming, and redemption.
Although it seems inconceivable that anyone could fall in love with the entity charged with humanity’s end, once you start reading, you’ll quickly realize that Laura Thalassa makes it work. Death was engaging from the first chapter to the end, moved quickly, featured plenty of action, had lots of layers, and many steamy scenes. All too soon, you’ll be at the end of the book and want to start over with the first novel though!
I would wholeheartedly recommend Death to anyone and am looking forward to future novels by Laura Thalassa.
Death by L. Thalassa, published by Sourcebooks, Bloom Books, is the fourth book in the Four Horsemen Series.
The fittng conclusion to a fantastic dystopian series, that took me on a wild ride.
After Pestilence, War and Famine, Death is the last unmated of the four horsemen. That's about to change when he meets Lazarus, the woman he can't take her soul from.
She's determined, he needs to be stopped, the beautiful angel of darkness. Everything seems lost and ultimate sacrifices have to be made. But love conquers everything in the end all four get a well deserved, hard earned hea. An outstanding unique series I read with beated breath, sitting on the edge of my seat.
Another book in the four horsemen series. This one is about Death who falls in love with Lazarus who cannot be killed....
Lots of violence, steamy scenes, drama and suspense. Lazarus and Death are terrific together. Very dramatic and lots of action. A terrific addition to the series.
Thanks to the publisher for the arc.
This was a good read, but Pestilence is still my favorite book out of this series. I enjoyed Lazrus and Thanatos characters. I loved that Laz was different from the previous leading female characters in this series. She definitely stood out in this series, and I liked that even when she failed, she kept trying and trying. When it came to Death, there were more than a few times where he had me wanting to pull my hair out. However, he came through in the end and I loved how things came full circle with the brothers and their loves, this series wrapped up nicely. I didn't expect it to end the way it did, but I enjoyed it none the less. I'm definitely looking forward to reading more books from this author. I think this is a great series for paranormal romance book lovers.
