I suspect I would have enjoyed DESTROY THE DAY by Brigid Kemmerer a lot more had I not finished EMPIRE OF THE DAMNED before it. Unfortunately, Jay Kristoff left me so numb to shocking twists that when it came time for Ms. Kemmerer’s big shock, I felt nothing. It didn’t even phase me. I actually liked and appreciated it as an act of bravery on the author’s part.
As for the rest, I believe Ms. Kemmerer’s solution to the poisoning situation and Rian’s threats as very clever. Sometimes, the only way to resolve a problem is to go nuclear, something that works very well in DESTROY THE DAY.
I do love the series and appreciate everything Ms. Kemmerer does in DESTROY THE DAY. It’s just that everything pales in comparison to that show more other book, and it is going to take some time for that influence to fade. show less
