Madness of the Horde King
by Zoey Draven
adventurous
fast-paced
4 ⭐
Vienne: Timid and fearful of the Dakkari but enslaved by the Ghertun, she is sent to deliver a message to the King of Dakkar. Vienne has her own unique gift however and captures the attention of the Mad Horde King while she is there.
Davik: Has a terrifying reputation among the hordes as the “Mad Horde King”. Ruthless, brutal, crazy. But ACTUALLY!! He is kind and compassionate and his horde loves and respects him. He has a very dark past and has convinced himself that he is incapable of love and does not deserve to have a wife.
UGH these two. They are literally magic. I love how Davik helps Vienne find her courage and how she, in turn, helps his realize he is capable and deserving of love. They are both so damaged but bring out the best in each other. Very angsty but very sweet. ❤️
TW – mentions of past SA, death of family members
SPOILER: My one gripe: Did not understand Vienne’s decision to keep the poison a secret from Davik. (I mean, I get it, it’s for the drama but damn... imagine the time we’d save.)
