Death is the final book in The Four Horsemen series. It is such an emotional read and I feel satisfied with how everything got wrapped up! 

The plot started with a great opening, Death finally meet his match when his power doesn’t work on her. He’s getting a taste of what his previous brothers met while doing their mission – an angry, compassionate and strong willed woman getting in the way of completing his mission!

This story was told in dual POV, from the FMC (Lazarus) and the Horsemen (Death) which is what I’ve wished for from the previous book. I like those chapter with Death’s POV which makes this story even more enjoyable.

I also love Lazarus’s determination in saving people and keep trying to stop Death since she’s the only that can come in close contact with him. 
I like seeing her interaction with Death as she introduce the little mundane things such as food, drinks and small comfort actions humans do with Death throughout the story. 

My most favorite part out of this story is not only just seeing Death’s character development grow but also the appearance of the other three horsemen. We're getting a glimpse of what War and Pestilence life is like after they surrendered and live a mortal life. 

Overall, this is a great conclusion to the series. I absolutely love that beautiful heart-warming epilogue too!
I feel a bit sad now that I have to say goodbye to the four horsemen, I’ve been enjoying their stories and how they come to restore their faith in humans and see it as something worth saving. 
I really like this author’s writing style so I’m gonna check out more books by her!

“We gave up our immortality and the vast extent of our powers because we believe that despite our task, humans are worthy of living.”
