Book Review: The Spirit Rebellion and The Spirit Eater

The Spirit Rebellion (The Legend of Eli Monpress #2) by Rachel Aaron
The Spirit Eater (The Legend of Eli Monpress #3) by Rachel Aaron

So after reading the first book, The Spirit Thief, I went out and bought #2 and #3 the next day, I had to continue the adventures of Eli and his friends! The books didn't disappoint, The Spirit Rebellion picks up right after The Spirit Thief ends and you get to see the resulting fall out. Eli, of course, ends up smelling like roses and enjoying a boost in bounty. A bit more of his past is revealed and an multi-book story arc develops more.

The overarching story arc blossoms in The Spirit Eater, which delves into Nico's past and current complications. The interactions between the main characters is more intimate (not in a romantic way) and their histories, both individually and as a group, are told. Several new characters are introduced and explored more in this book and hopefully will play a bigger role in the upcoming The Spirit War.

Throughout both books, there was a lot of fun and interesting adventures and succeeded in staying an extremely enjoyable read! Can't wait for #4 to come out!
