Review: The Veil (Devil's Isle, #1) by Chloe Neill

The Veil by Chloe Neill
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Having enjoyed this author’s Chicagoland Vampires Series, I was looking forward to her new dystopian series.

Set in New Orleans, destroyed after the war between humans and supernaturals, humans live very harsh and scary lives…..

I liked the idea of the story but there were a few things that just didn’t do it for me in The Veil, 1st book in the Devil’s Isle Series.

I know that this being the first book, it would have a load of world-building but jeez……after a bit…I kept having to stop and think about all the characters and places so I could keep up with the plot. Really slow going.

I didn’t totally engage with the characters….okay, Claire Connoly I kind of like in some way but I didn’t buy into the connection and chemistry between her and Liam Quinn. Something was missing between these two.

Didn’t exactly hate this book….just didn’t love it. Hopefully as the series progresses I will get more into this new world that Chloe Neill is creating.

I am looking forward to the next book, which I am hoping will get me into the groove!!!!
