Vilest Things ~ Chloe Gong

Reviewed by Dusti

Flesh and False Gods #2

Calla Tuoleimi has succeeded in the impossible. Despite the odds, she has won San-Er’s bloody games and eliminated King Kasa, her tyrant uncle and the former ruler of Talin. She serves now as royal advisor to Kasa’s adopted son, August Shenzhi, who has risen to the throne.

Only Calla knows it isn’t really August.

We are BACK in the city of twin city San-Er and this second book starts right where book 1 left off and I could not be happier.

Vilest Things follows Calla after winning the games and becoming an advisor to the new King August, but the palace holds secrets and Calla will not settle until she figures out why strange things are happening and why she’s hearing voices from the past.

We leave the city and adventure into the provinces to discover more about the world of Talin and find out that not everything is actually what the people have thought for generations.

I would like to thank Simon & Schuster Canada for sending me an ARC ebook of Vilest Things in exchange for my honest review. It will be available at your local bookseller or public library on September 10 2024. To pre-order a copy and support my blog please click here.
