Happy Monday my lovely bookworms. Today I am really excited to be bringing you my blog tour stop for The Glorious Poison, the final book in The Battalion of the Dead series by Kat Dunn.

I decided to do a bit of a different post today for my stop, I wanted to share 5 reasons why you should read this glorious series. See what I did there. 😉 Sadly life got in the way the last couple of weeks and I haven’t had a chance to read Glorious Poison but I will be shortly. But first here is a little bit more about the book.

The daring and dramatic conclusion to Kat Dunn's epic C18th French Revolution trilogy 'with lashings of lust, love, sacrifice, betrayal and horror'.
Robespierre is dead. The Reign of Terror is over.
As Royalist strength grows, the Duc de L'Aubespine plots a coup that will consign the revolution to history. With Olympe in his clutches, he believes nothing can stop him. But he's reckoned without the intrepid Battalion of the Dead!
Reunited in Paris, Ada is poised for action - but if she plays her hand too soon, everything she's sacrificed to gain his trust will be lost. Meanwhile, an unlikely alliance with an old enemy might be Camille's only option to save Olympe and stop the duc in his tracks.
The glittering and macabre bals des victimes and the eerie catacombs make the perfect backdrop for the final episode of the Battalion's tale.

If you are like me and historical books, or historical fantasy isn’t your poison, then I would highly recommend this series. I have loved every single page of these books. So apart from me loving it. Let’s give you 5 more reasons why you will love it..

1. Ease of reading – I find a lot of historical fantasies can be overly complicated or too descriptive. I think that is what turns me off. But this series beautifully written and completely addictive, that you can’t help but keep turning the pages.
2. Atmospheric storytelling – the setting of the French Revolution is very darkly beautiful at the same time, especially in Monstrous Design. It also has a very dark science/dark fantasy feel which I love.
3. Diverse group of loveable, huggable and some crazy bandits of revolutionaries and royalists. Not sure if I have a favourite character. I do love Guil and maybe Camille.
4. Magic, Tension and the danger and the thrill of the chase from page 1 of the series – I mean that’s what got me hooked.
5. A twisted classic retelling set in the French Revolution – it’s a historical fantasy unlike any other I have read.

I will undoubtedly update you and review the next books in the series.

Thank you to Zephye Books for sending me a copy for review.
