The story tells of a star-crossed Roman between a Celtic queen and a Roman soldier. I really like the characters of Catrin and Marcellus. Catrin is a strong woman. I also like the historical details in the novel and found it to be meticulously researched. The story was also very well-written. I would love to see what happens in the next book! I recommend this for fans of Melanie Karsak!

Skulls Vengeance is the fourth book in the Curse of Clansmen and Kings series.
The book is well written and the world building is Fantastic. This book is a Historical fantasy and takes place in the early first millennia.
The story follows Catrin finally being freed and trying to find a way home to reclaim her rightful place as queen and continuing to try and defeat her evil half brother.
The plot had a good flow to it and I can’t wait to see where the story goes in the next book.

Thank you to Netgalley, the author and publish for an eARC copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

Skull’s Vengeance is an evocative and gripping fantasy adventure that long time fans of the series will heartily enjoy. This is a fast-paced read that will appeal to fans of epic fantasy that are looking for a bit of history infused in their fantasy lore. Skull’s Vengeance has well-defined characters, a deep backstory and a well-drawn plot. I think it’s best suited to adult readers who don’t mind some graphic violence and sex scenes.

this was another great entry in the Curse of Clansmen and Kings series, it had what I was hoping for from the previous entries. The characters were what I was expecting and worked in this historical setting, I enjoyed the use of Celtic lore and enjoyed what I read. I hope the series continues as I enjoyed what the story was doing in this book but can't wait to read more from Linnea Tanner.

"To his shock, Marcellus beheld the bloody, spiked head of Adonis on the wall. The overpowering stench made him gag and his stomach lurch. He stepped back, repelled by the scene of the desecrated head and the gaping wound in the headless body’s groin where he’d been castrated. Swirling emotions gripped him as he surmised that Cynwrig had most likely done the vile deed. Adonis’s headless shade would bear the mark of shame in the Underworld for all eternity."
