Sheep Book Review: Tainted Rose (Starlight Gods #2) by Yumoyori Wilson

I failed…

My name is Ryder Carter, future heir of Realm Five, Minato.

I was destined to do great things, to walk alongside my fellow star knights, as we desperately searched for the woman who would lead our galaxy to salvation.

My spirit and I had failed her once, unable to prevent the chain of events and challenges she’d faced for sixteen cycles. Then, we finally found her – alive.

Within two rotations, she’d blossomed into a beautiful rose – such delicate petals, filled with purity and life. My mission was to guide her home, to where she truly belonged, as our Princess and saviour from the approaching darkness. She was more than just our Princess; I loved her with all my heart.

But…I failed. My once perfect rose, damaged by my failures. Would she ever forgive me, her star knight who’d sworn to protect her? Will I ever get the chance to tell her how much she means to me…to us?

Only the Starlight gods can tell. Please…bring my Firefly home.


I have to be honest, I had a really hard time starting this book. There was a TON of confusion about who was what and WTH was going on. The timelines seemed to jump around from different points and it was not clear why. Book 2 is certainly not the place to start this series. 

As I tried to just buckle down and read further into the story, pieces started to click into place. But struggle I did. Which got frustrating for sure, but the story writing was so good it kept me wanting to know more. 

Personally there was just way too much angst, this story is a PNR and by right it should have cut way back on this aspect. But that's just my opinion. There are tons of unique aspects to this book, I really enjoyed the new take on an old theme. You have to try new things in such a big market and I respect that. 

I am on really torn on a rating with this one, please check other reviews and don't just take my word on it!
