USA Today bestselling author K.A. Linde returns to the Royal Houses series with House of Gods: the story of Kerrigan Argon, a half-Fae, half-human as she seeks her place in an unforgiving world filled with magic, mayhem, and romance. Perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas, Holly Black, and V.E. Schwab.

On the other side of a portal, Kerrigan Argon lands in the home of the gods–alone.

She’s lost everything: Her family. Her magic. Her world.

Even her dark Fae prince, Fordham Ollivier, has disappeared. She has no where to turn, and no idea how to survive in this new world.

The first kind face in the crowd gives Kerrigan hope. Until her would-be helpers, kidnap and deliver her into a new kind of hell and the only chance to get home–the gladiator ring.

Win the gladiator tournament and receive a gift from the gods.

Kerrigan is determined to gain that boon to save her people.

Review

4.5 forever stars!

House of Gods picks up where House of Curses left off and, wow – what a ride! When Kerrigan wakes after she went through the portal at the end of the last book, things immediately don’t look good for her. She finds herself in a place she doesn’t know, in a cage she can’t escape, and Fordham is nowhere in sight.

Kerrigan learns quickly that she landed in Domara and the Doma rule everyone. They are gods in this land and they have the power and magic to do as they choose. She also realizes that there is one Doma in particular who wants her dead. However, she has never shied away from danger and she isn’t about to start now.

This story is a fantastic addition to the Royal Houses series! I am fully invested in Kerrigan and this world, and I found myself engrossed in the book. It’s fast paced and riveting, with unexpected twists making every new situation Kerrigan finds herself in much more challenging. There are enemies at every turn and it is hard to determine who she can trust. She realizes that even though she came here for a reason, she needs to find Ford and get back home even if she leaves without answers.

Kerrigan goes on an adventure that ultimately opens her eyes to who she is and what she needs to do. There are ups and downs and her life is always in danger but once Ford is with her, he will do anything to protect her and support her. Their relationship becomes stronger and they growth both individually and as a couple. My heart soared and swooned when they were together and though it took almost half the book for them to reconnect, the wait was worth it.

Neither had wanted to live without the other. She couldn’t even fathom it at this point. He had her back, but this was more than that. This was how it always should have been. Not enemies, not partners, not separated by a foreign country set on their destruction. Together. Mind, heart, and soul.

We get action, adventure, and more magic. Different magic. We meet new characters and see old ones, and get more depth to each of them. And all the while Kerrigan is still fighting for everything she believes in and will not give up. Her dedication and determination never wavers even when things are stacked against her.

At the end of the book, Kerrigan finally finds herself back in Alandria with some of her closest friends, but her life is still very much in danger from the Red Masks and their leader, and all the chaos and destruction she left behind when she initially went through the portal. She has only just returned yet she is ready to fight with everything she has. House of Embers, the final book in the series can’t come soon enough!! I need more of this world!
