review 1: What I liked about this book:1. The female lead is not some passive woman who looks to a man to save her.2. The content is very adult, and realistic for the time frame it is set in. 3. The villain is flawed and human, even if he is decidedly not human. 4. The romance is realistic, not forced, and well crafted.5. Magic! Sexy time! 6. Good secondary characters that I am also invested in!7. Sometimes when I read a book I get annoyed that I can't picture the characters quite right. For whatever reason, with this book they seem as clear as day.
review 2: I began to read this book because it came highly recommended by many, many reviewers (AND Anne Rice), so maybe my expectations were a little too high. The story is mostly well written and her style instantly grabs y... moreou. You can see she put a lot of thought into the world she created, and you can envision every little detail to perfection. That being said, I found the plot line to be a little faulty, predictable and even forced or repetitive at times; and maybe the characters were somewhat unrealistic at certain points… but then they fell back on the right track (I don’t know. It was a little confusing). I guess she will be getting better and better with time and practice, so I will probably continue with the series. What I liked the most about The Darkness of Light was all the research she put into making her world believable. A previous reviewer said that if she had to put a name on it, it would be historical urban fantasy. I don’t know if that’s a thing, but if it were THIS would be it.BTW: That cover is GORGEOUS. less
