Summary
The passion of the sin of Wrath can win the most difficult of battles, but demands a heavy toll — in blood, love, and everything beyond.
Simon came to Laalmati to protect one woman. Now he has a village, a war, and a past closing in from all sides.
The red soil of Laalmati turns a shade darker as Simon and the Syndicate go head to head. While the Syndicate tightens its claws around the village and the rebels, Simon confronts the ghosts of his past. An ultimate showdown of violence against brutality, wrath against redemption.
Some debts can only be paid in blood. The question is, whose?
There's a whole lot more action and more deaths, and the whole thing feels a bit like an Indian John Wick knock-off, which isn't bad, exactly. The idyllic scenes of rural India are no more, however, as everything devolves into violence.
Writing quality is still fairly good, but there are still the weird sections of mixed past and present tense. Other than these, the grammar is excellent. There are a couple of action scenes where pronouns could be grounded better, with a rogue "he" not having an obvious anchor.
Audiobook narration remains good, albeit still slow, but with no obvious mispronunciations this time around.
I'm glad I listened to this to finish off the story and find out what happened to Simon and the village, but I certainly wouldn't listen to it again. This second book is less of an interesting exploration of culture than the first, instead focusing more on action. The overall impression if a modern action movie set in rural India remains.
