I’d forgotten how drawn out the last third of these books can be, but I was excited about the series, finally featuring a black female character!

This is the 7th Orc Sworn book so even if youve not read the others, you can try them all cause they follow much the same smutty fun pattern. Woman scared of Orc. Woman have sex with Orc. Woman love Orc. 😂

While I enjoy the tasty orc seed and gushing geyser of orgasms as usual lol I did have a few issues with the rep at the start of the book. 

I liked that a black character was being featured, but once I realised that she was still in fact the Other in this world that the author had built, it kind of lost its appeal. 

I wanted Geva to just be Black, to just exist, but it was made apparent from the start that she is from somewhere else and she is different and people treat her differently because she is Black.

While this wasn’t in any way, really serious triggering or concerning racism at all, just the fact that it was included made it rather annoying.

Once I got past that annoyance, however, the story was as all other Orc Sworn books are, a light bit of fun, with some intense smut scenes and voyeurism amongst orcs, so nothing too different on that front!

There was some cliche rep once more, when the author made it a point that the orc was not allowed to touch her hair or to spew his seed in it lol While this is fine to include - I guess - it felt a little tacky? and could have been omitted. 

The plot was a little drawn out at the end, as mentioned, but overall a decent enough read if youre focusing on the smut element of the book.
