Continuing the Darkworld series with Walking Shadow.

Life isn't any safer for Ash now that she has found out that she can see into the Darkworld and can see demons, who, for some reason or another, seem to be really interested in attacking her. Together with her friends she has to endure more adventures at the Blackstone University.

It was easy to continue the series, it was only a week or so after the first book. Luckily for me, there was not too much of a recap since everything was still quite fresh in my head. Even if it has been a longer while, I think you'll be able to get all the details straight quite fast.

There was a little sigh from my sight at the first mention of vampires (are the werewolves next?) but the vampires were no ordinary vampires. A bit confusing though since they keep calling them vampires. Like in the first book, the mystery isn't that much of a mystery but it's nice to read about Ash, Claudia, Leo and the others. I would like to find out exactly what happened to Berenice.

It's another easy and fast read (I finished it in a couple of hours). Next up is the third (and at this moment newest) book in the series.

Walking Shadow is the second book in the Darkworld series. The earlier books are Darkness Watching and a prequel novella called Fear's Touch.

Thanks to the publisher for providing me with a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review! ( )

What I Thought of Walking Shadow:

Love. Just utter love for this series! It has everything I could every want and is so addicting. I am counting the days and hours to the release...seriously.

I loved where Walking Shadow took us in the series. There were so many changes, additions and revalations, not to mention -action, magic, maybe some love and a mysterious fortune teller!

After the finish of Darkness Watching, I was completely amped to see where the story went. I was worried for some characters, particularly Ash, I wanted to know more about Claudia and Berenice and Oh! was that a little love from Leo? So many questions unanswered and so much on the brink of exploding in the Darkworld.

A few questions, particularly about Claudia and Berenice, were answered in Fear's Touch (a Darkworld novella), but I needed to know where the 'sinners' were headed. With this book, we learn that the magic world is more than we first thought. We see the entrance of vampires - ugh, typical...oh wait! These vamps are NOTHING like the vamps we've read about before. It was brill to see a fantasy staple in the story, but with a major twist. I loved what Adams did with the Darkworld Series vamps, but I shall not say more, as it is an important part of the story! Just trust me, it's new and exciting.

As Ash finds herself in the middle of a world that is ever changing, exciting and under threat from the Demon's world, we see her and the whole crew grow and become a major part in the future of the world. The only question is, will Ash choose the right side, or damn the world to the demons?

I loved the demon Ash and the way she manipulated the world. It not only showed just what can happen when a foe takes your face to commit crimes, but also the strength of demons. From there we , finally, get a glimpse into the real fortune teller, or at least we think we do...

I was completely engrossed in every word that Adams had written on the pages of Walking Shadow. I found myself up late many a night, unable to put down my iPad, as I had to read one more page. I needed to know what happened. With the action, blossoming emotions and the secrets, this demon infested, fantasy story was one of the most brilliant stories I have read in a long time. I see this series becoming VERY popular. It would make an excellent film!

Overall, addicting, engrossing, unputdownable and truly a brilliant read. I highly highly recommend reading this book and the entire series. If I could give it more than 5 stars I would! ( )
