I read Prophecy, book two in this series first, and really enjoyed it. I also liked this book but not quite as well. The story is intriguing, the characters interesting and the plot imaginative. The story could have been rounded out more. Definitely worth a read. Heat Rating: Mild detailed scenes of intimacy, mild violence or profanity. Rating: 4.0 Reviewed By: ReadWarrior,My Book Addiction Reviews nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

HTML: London, 1851 Former thief Jovan Davenport is the black sheep in a family of powerful sorcerers. But when his dying father--head of the League of Illusion--reaches out for help, Jovan has no choice but to accept. He must find his missing brother Sebastian and stop the power-hungry Hawthorne family from taking control of the council. If only they'd appointed someone other than Skylar Vanguard to help him in his quest. Skylar, a druid and accomplished tracker, has spent three years trying to forget her past, especially Jovan Davenport. Once in love, she left Jovan when she discovered his betrayal. She wants nothing to do with him or his family, but must obey the council's will by accompanying Jovan and reporting back on his progress. Forced to work alongside each other, neither of them expects their passion to return so quickly. But as the conspiracy deepens in a steam-powered world of dirigibles and mechanical golems, will their secrets stand in the way of their mission...and their love? 45,000 words .Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

The basic premise of the book was a good one and could have been done very well. However, the book was just generally terribly written. The main characters are not very likable and sound more like "petulant children" (to borrow a phrase from Skylar in the book), constantly bickering with one another, and the dialogue is awful. There are also parts of the story that just don't make sense. Jovan supposedly "left no stone unturned" when Sebastian first disappeared, yet within a few hours Skylar manages to find out that Sebastian had been in love but had accidentally killed the woman he loved just before he disappeared. She talked to one person to discover this, and she didn't even have to use her druid tracking powers to find this person. How hard could they really have looked? All the stuff about keys and doors and time travelling was just not very well explained, although I do see that it's a set-up for the second novel in the series, which I will NOT be reading. I would have been expecting the poor quality of this book if it had been something I had downloaded for free. I allow for poor editing, etc., in that situation. However, this is something that I downloaded from my public library's ebook collection, which they pay a lot of money for content for, so I expected much better. ( )
