“The eternity cure” is the second book in the “blood
of Eden” trilogy written by Julie Kagawa. The books follow a dystopian future
in which a plague was liberated and ended with most of the population. Since
then the cities are protected by vampire lords, who reign as kings among
humans.
After leaving Eden Alison is decided to find her sire,
Kanin, who was trapped by one of the cruelest vampires, Sarren. Following her
blood bond, she is lead to find no other but her blood-brother, Jackal, king of
Old Chicago and the one that killed Jeremiah. However, they found themselves
uniting forces in order to find Kanin and the possible cure. This quest will
lead them to the beginning of Alison’s life, New Covington. However, the city
would not be the only thing Alison will face that she thought she had left
behind.
“The Eternity Cure” was overall a really good book,
however it was hard for me to get into it, since it had been almost four years
since I read the first one. Also, I founded the beginning when Alison is alone
quite slow and tedious, however once she unites with Jackal and specially when
they get to New Covington the pace starts picking up.
Apart from that, I really liked the twists that the
plot gave, especially in the end. Although I was kind of expecting what was
hinted in the prologue.
The characters change a little since book one, however
Allison suffered a major development in book one, therefore there was not much
to be done. Jackal though suffers an extreme development during this book and I
can venture much development in the future. Kanin though was an odd character,
I did not feel an attachment to him. He was like ghost, he has little dialog
and does not add much to the whole story.
To sum up, “The eternity cure” was an interesting and compelling
sequel. And I am now ready to finish up the series with the third book, “The
forever song”.
