They’re both fanatics and care very less about the demolition that they cause. Nadya and Malachiaz have always felt mirror like characters to me. Despite being betrayed, he is ready to put all that behind and tries his best to save all people. He keeps challenging himself and the situation around him. He has finally accepted who and what he is. I loved his overall character arc and the learning curve that he had in this particular book as well. Serefin was my favorite character from book one and that hasn’t changed. Except for the idea of theology in this fictional universe, there wasn’t much new going on.

Other than that, it all follows a similar pattern since book one. Because, when you come to the basics, only the roles are interchanged.

I guess it is some kind of skill to regurgitate almost a similar plot and yet keep your readers pinned. As a result, you actually buy the fact that these dark and twisted young adults are somehow going to save the day. You know that whatever is happening around is too big for your main characters to handle, and yet they’re determined. One of the themes of the series is a race towards an impending doom. Blessed Monsters is no doubt an evenly paced story following a similar story structure as it’s predecessors.
