summary -Salvation has its price.
The words stunned Adrian for a moment, but he kept going. “You’re lying. What you’re describing is impossible. There’s no way to save a Strigoi. When they’re gone, they’re gone. They’re dead. Undead. Forever.”
Robert’s next words weren’t directed at Adrian. They were spoken to me. “That which is dead doesn’t always stay dead….”
After a long and heartbreaking journey to Dimitri’s birthplace in Siberia, Rose Hathaway has finally returned to St. Vladimir’s—and to her best friend, Lissa Dragomir. It’s graduation, and the girls can’t wait for their real lives outside of the Academy’s cold iron gates to finally begin. But even with the intrigue and excitement of court life looming, Rose’s heart still aches for Dimitri. He’s out there, somewhere.
She failed to kill him when she had the chance, and now her worst fears are about to come true. Dimitri has tasted her blood, and she knows in her heart that he is hunting her. And if Rose won’t join him, he won’t rest until he’s silenced her…forever.
But Rose can’t forget what she learned on her journey—whispers of a magic too impossible and terrifying to comprehend. A magic inextricably tied to Lissa that could hold the answer to all of Rose’s prayers, but not without devastating consequences. Now Rose will have to decide what—and who—matters most to her. In the end, is true love really worth the price?
Book review – After the craziness of Blood promise we were wondering what was going to happen next after we found out Dimiri wasn’t killed by Rose and we now found out that there is sapose to be a way to save strigoi from not being strigoi anymore but there was only way of getting that info was releasing a criminal who was related to him Victor Dashkov. But Rose also has her trials that she passed but her dad showed up he was sitting next to her boyfriend Adrian Ivshkov who I so love them together and Lissa and Christian are still broken up blah that is so aggravating I don’t think I screamed more in a book ever espeshilly when rose was arrested for killing the queen oh we also found out that lissa has a half -brother or half -sister oh my freaking god this book was amazing can’t wait to read The last sacrifice the final book in the vampire academy series.
