review 1: I like this book. However, it was a little bit of a tough read for me. I still didn't like the modern phraseology and word choice and the pacing was very slow. I guess I might like the modern touches better if it was a made-up world. But since it's the middle ages in Europe it's a little bit tougher for me to process. Not a whole lot happened in the story to tell you the truth. There were some things I really did like and there were some things I didn't like. It seemed like it was very slow for the time that passed and because of this the romance was rushed. I did enjoy Cosmina; she's a strong heroine. I love Henrik, I liked him in the first book as well. While I absolutely adore the first book, this one was just okay for me. It didn't seem to advance the overall arc very ... moremuch. I was disappointed that we did not see Afina at all. Plus the fact that the dragons can go out in daylight contradicts the Dragonfury series. Well I understand it's very far in the future compared to this century, I don't like that kind of a difference when the same creature. I still like the series overall and I do look forward to the next book to see where it's going.
review 2: This fantasy romance takes readers on a riveting journey as the elite assassin Henrik rescues Cosmina, a powerful oracle from the clutches of evil and as the enemy closes in, they both discover that they can’t fight destiny.This fast paced and smooth flowing plot keeps readers on the edge of their seat with action, suspense, drama, magic and romance. The author brings this fantasy story to life with well written scenes and details which paint vivid images and capture the imagination and the well orchestrated action scenes are exciting and believable, drawing the reader deeper into the adventure. The characters are strong, compelling, easily related to and grab the reader’s attention from the very beginning and as the danger from the evil escalates, spine tingling tension sends delicious shivers down the spine.The attraction between Henrik and Cosmina is undeniable but both believe they have to live in the moment which leads to some hot and steamy sex scenes, but means it takes the romance some time progress and for each to realize that they can’t live without each other. Both Henrik and Cosmina have had traumatic pasts that directly impact the present and the reader’s heart, although they both have come out the stronger for what they’ve been through and Henrik’s strength and protectiveness toward Cosmina really captures the heart.The reader can’t help but get caught up in the story as all the captivating characters learn of their magical abilities and the author throws in a few surprises to keep the reader guessing as evil tries to stop the light. The author has created a fascinating world full of magical characters and elements that arouses the curiosity and ensures that they want to know more. I haven’t read the first one yet… but I will certainly be remedying that and I can’t wait for the next one. less
