Vicious Book 3 Novels & Stories

Ever since I finished the first two books in the 'Vicious' series, I've been itching to get my hands on the third installment. For online shopping, I usually check Amazon first—they tend to have both physical copies and Kindle versions, and the delivery is reliable. Barnes & Noble’s website is another solid option, especially if you prefer supporting traditional bookstores. Sometimes, indie shops like Bookshop.org have it too, which feels great because you’re helping smaller businesses.

If you’re into audiobooks, Audible might have it, though I haven’t checked yet. Oh, and don’t forget eBay or AbeBooks for secondhand copies if you’re okay with pre-loved books. I once snagged a rare edition of another series there for half the price! Just make sure to read seller reviews to avoid scams. The hunt for a book can be part of the fun, honestly—like tracking down a treasure.

Man, I just finished binge-reading all the 'Vicious' books last week, and what a ride! While I haven't seen any official announcement from the author, the way book 2 wrapped up definitely left room for more. The character arcs still have so much potential—especially Victor's moral grayness and Eli's god complex. The series could easily dive deeper into their twisted dynamic or explore new powered individuals in that universe.

That said, the second book's climax did feel like it resolved the core conflict. If it is the end, I wouldn't be mad—it's rare to find a duology that sticks the landing this well. But if we get a third book? I'll be first in line to preorder. That world's too rich to leave behind just yet. Maybe we'll finally get Sydney's backstory properly explored!

I just finished rereading 'Vicious' Book 3, and the character dynamics are still as electrifying as ever! The core duo, Victor Vale and Eli Cardale, remains central—their twisted rivalry is the spine of the series, but this installment fleshes out Sydney Clarke and Mitch Turner even more. Sydney’s growth from a traumatized kid to someone grappling with her powers (and morality) is heartbreakingly well-written. Mitch, the gruff but loyal hacker, gets some unexpected emotional depth too.

Then there’s newcomer Dominic Rusher, whose ability ties into the series’ themes of sacrifice and control in such a clever way. The way Schwab weaves his arc with the existing characters’ conflicts—especially Eli’s god complex—makes the whole thing feel like a powder keg waiting to explode. Plus, Serena’s manipulations in the background add this delicious layer of unease. I love how no one in this series is purely good or evil; they’re all shades of ruthless, desperate, or broken.
