Each of them has had a redeeming quality of some kind. Of all the Horsemen, Death was the hardest for me to reconcile my feelings for. She is an enigma and one that Death must solve if he is to complete his mission. She was orphaned as a young child, surviving what killed her parents, raised by another family only to stand helplessly alive when Death rides through her town. She is bitter and enraged for most of this book and understandably so.
Every time she faces death, she is resurrected, immortal but no one knows why. She is a tortured soul, surviving against all odds (even a broken neck). Death exceeded all expectations, plus we get to see all the Horsemen together at last. She put me through the wringer before she pieced me back together again. It is no secret that Thalassa is one of my all-time favorite writers, an auto-buy for me, and I eagerly wait each of her books. I savored this one, limiting how much I read each day, because y’all I did not want it to end. What an end to a fantastic series! Death by Laura Thalassa is the final book in her series The Four Horsemen, and, boy, does it deliver. Humankind is set to perish, and not even the horsemen can stop Death from fulfilling his final task. But Death’s attraction to her is undeniable, and try though she might, Lazarus cannot stay away from that ancient, beautiful being and his dark embrace. A hopeless task, made all the worse by the bad blood between her and Thanatos. When Lazarus crosses paths with the three other horsemen, an unthinkable situation leads to a terrible deal: seduce Death, save the world. And the longer she tries to stop him from his killing spree, the stronger the desire becomes.
Nor can he ignore the unsettling desire he has for her. The one soul he cannot pry free from her flesh. She is the one soul Death doesn’t recognize.
But Lazarus has her own extraordinary gift: she cannot be killed-not by humans, not by the elements, not by Death himself. The day Death comes to Lazarus Gaumond’s town and kills everyone in one fell swoop, the last thing he expects to see is a woman left alive and standing. And then, of course, there's the one I’m all too familiar with. They came to earth, and they came to end us all. Four horsemen with the power to destroy all of humanity. They came to earth-Pestilence, War, Famine, Death-four horsemen riding their screaming steeds, racing to the corners of the world.
