Divine Descendant

by Jenna Black

The Artemis Reader

I remember coming across the first book in this series – Dark Descendent – and loving the dark mythological world Jenna Black created. This forth installment (and final, I guess) was a bit of a disappointment.

The plot was weak at best. Another of Anderson Kane’s ex-wives is on a rampage. While he runs off attempting to fix the problem, Nikki and the rest of her Liberi friends are dealing with the aftermath of Konstantin’s death and revenge from his son, Cyrus. In the end the resolution is quick and almost so simple. The relationship between Nikki and Jamal is a large focus for this book, so really if you want to see them reach a climax (haha, bad joke, sorry) then you will probably enjoy this short final book.

In the end, I was a bit disappointed one of my favorite mythology driven series kind of flamed out, but glad to have a somewhat end after a three year gap between books three and four.
