This is going to be a read you're not going to want to miss, because the first one was just that good! I loved the characters, the action, the suspense, and the sci-fi fantasy awesomeness. And with so many answers still needing answered, the excitement is a struggle to contain. But before we get into the squeal; The Empress, let's take a look at The Diabolic.

A Diabolic is RUTHLESS.
A Diabolic is POWERFUL.
A Diabolic has a single task: KILL in order to protect the person you've been created for NOTHING ELSE.
Nemesis is a Diabolic. Created to protect a galactic
Senator's daughter, Sidonia. There's no one Nemesis wouldn't kill to keep her
safe. But when the power-mad Emperor summons Sidonia to the galactic court as a
hostage, there is only one way for Nemesis to protect Sidonia.
She must become her.
Now one of the galaxy's most dangerous weapons is
masquerading in a world of corruption and Nemesis has to hide her true
abilities or risk everything. As the Empire begins to fracture and rebellion
looms closer, Nemesis learns that there is something stronger than her deadly
force: the one thing she's been told she doesn't have - humanity. And, amidst
all the danger, action and intrigue, her humanity might be the only thing that
can save her, Sidonia and the entire Empire...

My ARC review for The Diabolic...
(ARC Review: Only my opinions and reactions from the book as a whole will be revealed. I will not be discussing any major plot points, or spoils.)
Let me just start off by saying that this book was so unique and out of this world exhilarating! Seriously, I can't get over it! It's where the genetic modifications of Maximum Ride, meets the harsh betrayal of Red Queen in space. Just as that sounds, it's full of unique plot twists and full of suspense. And speaking of plots, this one, I have never read anything like this before. It as so incredible! Kincaid truly out-did herself with this one, her passionate and imaginative writing style really made this one a refreshing read. I also really enjoyed the characters thought this story, each had their own obstacles to overcome, and it was amazing to see Kincaid fit them all into a already dense plot line. I'd have to say Nemesis was my favorite. She was a reliable main character, readers learn how the Galactic court works just as she is, forming the critical bond. She is also a major bad ass; round-house kicking, punching, flipping, and killing when necessary. If I ever met her, I wouldn't want to get on her bad side. And finally, with an amazing plot, refreshing writing style, and amazing characters, there can't possibly be anything more to this book. Right? While think again, there's also an epic romance packing into this already full mix. And it's one you're not going to want to miss. The Diabolic is one read you're going to want to add to your TBR pile, pronto! I don't want you to miss it, because you will be missing out on one of my favorite sci-fi reads this year.
And now on to the book of the hour. The Empress is expected to be release on Halloween, October 31st, 2017. And I can't wait to see what Kincaid has in-store for me.

The thrilling sequel to S.J. Kincaid’s New York Times
bestselling novel, The Diabolic that TeenVogue.com called “the perfect kind of
high-pressure adventure.”
It’s a new day in the Empire. Tyrus has ascended to the
throne with Nemesis by his side and now they can find a new way forward—one
where they don’t have to hide or scheme or kill. One where creatures like
Nemesis will be given worth and recognition, where science and information can
be shared with everyone and not just the elite.
But having power isn’t the same thing as keeping it, and
change isn’t always welcome. The ruling class, the Grandiloquy, has held
control over planets and systems for centuries—and they are plotting to stop
this teenage Emperor and Nemesis, who is considered nothing more than a
creature and certainly not worthy of being Empress.
Nemesis will protect Tyrus at any cost. He is the love of
her life, and they are partners in this new beginning. But she cannot protect
him by being the killing machine she once was. She will have to prove the
humanity that she’s found inside herself to the whole Empire—or she and Tyrus
may lose more than just the throne. But if proving her humanity means that she
and Tyrus must do inhuman things, is the fight worth the cost of winning it?
My thoughts so far...
Sounds so amazing, right? I might just be biased, because I've read the first one, but this on is going to be epic. I love these characters, and can't wait to see them grow in this one. I also can't wait to see what crazy adventure Kincaid has embarked on, with me just waiting to see what happens next. So, until then Kincaid, I'll be impatiently waiting...
