Synopsis:
Trouble stirs between nations and rebellion threatens Faeraven.
When Kai returns with the supposed DawnKing, Lof Shraen Elcon cannot trust that the Elder youth truly is the prophesied deliverer. Driven to prove himself, Elcon banishes the boy and embarks on a peace-keeping campaign into the Elder lands, where he falls in love with an Elder princess betrothed to another.
Sometimes the deliverance of a nation comes only through the humility of one.
Declaring his love would shame the nations, but Elcon is torn. As war approaches, Elcon's choices lead him on a journey of discovery that will either settle the lands or leave them mired in conflict. Can his kingdom ever be united, or will the consequences of his decisions forever tear asunder the fabric of Faeraven?
My Rating:
My Thoughts:
This was insane! The ending was pretty good. Somewhat expected, but unexpected. The writing as the first book was awesome! I loved the world and the drama. I loved the dynamics that can be seen between the Kindred and the Elders. I hope more of that gets expanded on in the third book.
Elcon is the main character in this book. With Shae having left, he now has to rule Faeraven. I love Elcon as a character because he is very straight-forward and comical. I got to see more of his vulnerable side which I was totally here for. He's such a great high king.
Kai is my love! I loved him in this book. His strength, his love for Shae, his love for his work. He's just awesome. I did not like how he just disappeared...I need answers! I LOVE Emmerich! He is amazing and I'm excited to see how things go for him in book three. Shae made her few appearances and I was so for it!
The whole romance in this book was interesting enough for me. Still a bit confused with Arillia and Aewen. Loved both ladies as love interests for Elcon though. Aewen was an interesting character, but her family was absolutely freaking annoying to me.
I'm confused about the baby...did she die or not?! So much confusion.
Freaer didn't have much in this book, but he still found a way to ANNOY ME!!!! I can't stand him.
I'm excited to dive into the third book and see what happens next for the crew.
