review 1: While it was a nice change to read the things from Danaus perspective, the overall novel still had the same faults I already mentioned in my last reviews. No closed plot and new secondary characters that were only there for a few pages but for those, we treated as if they'd always been one of the more important ones. I mean, take for instance the girl they pick up. Mira only knows her for one night and already thinks of basically adopting her, thinking of her as her surrogate daughter. Come on! And on the other hand, the relationship between her and Danaus is one of the slowest I have read so far, yet the way it is developed also doesn't really give the characters much space to grow into it. I just feel like the overall development of the plot-parts really shows the weakne... moress of the novels and the lack of ability of the author. I do like the overall plot idea but I think it would have been much better to create one longer, but awesome book instead of a drawn out series of 6 books.Now it's only to more to go and then I'm finally done. I do want to see how it all ends.
review 2: Danaus, why you not give Mira sex? *sigh* I think Drake loves to torture us as we wait for these two to get it together and just do something. There are so many moments that I think, "oh...oh, I bet they're gonna do it" and then I just get my hopes up. This is the most complicated relationship I've ever rooted for, I swear. But since I know Danaus becomes her consort, it implies some sexy times upcoming. Man, she beats the shit out of this guy. I feel like even though Mira gets beat up a lot, she takes more emotional damage than Danaus, so it puts her in this weird category in my head that's different from Danaus getting stabbed multiple times and shot with poison arrows. Being slightly human has its disadvantages. But being slightly human also delivers you some fun times. Gaizka - I'm not sure how you would pronounce that - but I love how he appears as angels. I've always thought it was cool that the author has fairies being evil but now you have a bit of a twist as the bori enter the picture and more angels & demons & gods will enter the picture. I'm very excited to read on. The only thing I'd have to say negatively about this book was kind of the ending. It wasn't so much that bad things happened (with Lily, Tristan, LaVina, etc.) but I kind of had to reread the action scene a few times to completely understand what was going on. There was a lot to take in and I was losing track of who killed who and what was happening sometimes. But I loved the cliffhanger. less
