Summary

They came to Earth - Pestilence, War, Famine, Death - four horsemen riding their screaming steeds, racing to the corners of the world. Four horsemen with the power to destroy all of humanity. They came to Earth, and they came to end us all. 

The day Jerusalem falls, Miriam Elmahdy knows her life is over. Houses are burning, the streets run red with blood, and a traitorous army is massacring every last resident. There is no surviving this, especially not once Miriam catches the eye of War himself. But when the massive and terrifying horseman corners Miriam, he calls her his wife, and instead of killing her, he takes her back to his camp. 

Now, Miriam faces a terrifying future, one where she watches her world burn town by town, and the one man responsible for it all is her seemingly indestructible “husband”. But there’s another side to him, one that’s gentle and loving and dead set on winning her over, and she might not be strong enough to resist. 

However, if there’s one thing Miriam has learned, it’s that love and war cannot coexist. And so, she must make the ultimate choice: surrender to War and watch humankind fall or sacrifice everything and stop him.

More!

I don't even know where to start, I don't read many dystopian novels but having read Pestilence, I automatically craved the next installment! 2 individuals, both openly uncompromising in their values and opinions - war took place in the world around them but the real war was just between the 2 of them.

It was like a really great meal - I needed to consume the whole thing but I was imediately sorry I had because that meant it was over - I look forward to famine.

Wow

I love this book.
I just got one question for book 1.
Did Sara and Victor have a boy or a girl?

Ok back to this story.
Characters: good, like how they grow.
Story: wonderful. I was so invested that I couldn’t put it away.
I can’t wait for the 3rd brother and his story.

a brilliant second book to the series

I have read this book before and in preparation for the last part coming shortly I revisited.
Loved the story and the characters. I will be gutted when the series ends.

It just gets better

I loved listening Pestilence then along comes War and steals the limelight from Pestilence.
Miriam has to come to terms when War tells her she was sent to him to be his wife. She is so defiant she’s having none of this nonsense and at every turn she defies him he tells her he knew she was going to be trouble from the start. Loved the way the story built making me want more and I sat up all night listening. I’m going to start Famine now and can’t wait to listen to Death when it’s released.

Enjoyable

Enjoyable listen but a few niggles, including the transformation of outlook that seems to come about out of nowhere. Would have enjoyed it a lot more if that transition was more convincing.

Oh my lord

This series about the four horsemen, and Laura as a writer, are quickly becoming my favorite of all time. I could write an essay about the why's and how's, but I'll just narrow it down for ya; buy it. It will be worth your time to listen to this gem of a book.

Amazing!

Even better than the first book! I spent the last few chapters just balling my eyes out, I couldn’t see how he could change as he seemed so set in his ways right the way through, I didn’t see how this book could end either but it all came together so amazingly well and just killed me emotionally at the end! It ended so well, I love how it all was wrapped up, I’m not sure how the next book can go in a good direction or the last one either from his character so far but I’m excited to find out!
