Kristy says: “Sacrificed\u00a0was a very intense installment to the Baal\u2019s Heart series. The voyage and strange lands are harsh and cruel. There is suffering but through it they truly discover their inner strength. Baltsaros weakness and fears almost tear them down but it\u2019s the stoic strength within Jon that perseveres. A darker story overall, but the emotion and growth is two-fold. This is a unique series for this genre and worth reading every page!” Read the whole review at 3 Chicks After Dark <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":904,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"generate_page_header":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[7],"tags":[152,60],"class_list":["post-903","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-beyond-the-spires","tag-4-stars","tag-review"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/beydeckard.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/tom-collared-1200.jpg?fit=1200%2C1600&ssl=1","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p4sexs-ez","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":1039,"url":"https:\/\/beydeckard.com\/blog\/sacrificed-heart-beyond-the-spires-review-excerpt-at-the-smutsonian\/","url_meta":{"origin":903,"position":0},"title":"Sacrificed: Heart Beyond the Spires (Review & Excerpt) at The Smutsonian","author":"Bey","date":"April 6, 2015","format":false,"excerpt":"Shurrn from The Smutsonian says: \"I loved the first book, Caged: Love and Treachery on the High Seas, and I was jumping at the chance to continue series\u2026 I was completely blown away by this follow-up.
