Holy roller-coaster of excitement!!! This is series is a must read plenty of action, emotional conflict and all around non-stop excitement. I totally can not wait to read the next book for this series as this one had me turning pages as fast as I could read to find out what would happen next.
Wow, just… wow!!! Talk about a roller-coaster ride. Right from the start this book is non-stop excitement, there’s always something happening, something to fight or some conflict, internal or external, that make the words just fly off the page. It felt so real as the movie played in my head. And the last like 20% was so intense, so many things coming to light along with some massive fighting. This series should be on everyone’s TBR list and definitely jump to the top. Book one was great but this one blew it out of the water. I can’t wait to see what happens in the next book. Oh the torture of waiting!
Please note that I received a complimentary copy of this work and chose to write a review.
Wooooow, this story took some twists I wasnt expecting! My brain definitely was rooting for someone that ended up being a bad person sooo that was unexpected haha. I still an unsure what to make of Selena. I am still not 100% invested in her but the other characters and plot really keep the story going. I think in this sequel there was more internalization and interaction between Selena and her inner demon/being which I think for me took me out of the story sometimes. I think the relationship with the sisters really elevated it for me (as well as the others on the team, especially the new crew). I thought the plot was fantastic and I kept holding my breath, especially at the end. I am dying to know what happens next and am intrigued to see how things develop with Selena and the others after what she had to do. Another thing that I think kept me from giving it a 5 stars is I keep thinking she is older than she is, but she is just a teen. Some of the actions/development didnt exactly jive with that, but some of Selena’s decisions/behavior make more sense if you keep remember she and the others are just kids, not even young adults yet.
For the narration, Stacey did a great job, I thought improved since Book 1. I gave her a 4.5 stars but rounded up to 5 because I could hear the differences. She did a great job with the heartache and the tension between Selena and the 2 guys really well. The diabolical characters and actions were presented very well, definitely brought me into the world and allowed my imagination to see things happening as I listened.
Will be continuing to listen, can’t wait to get my hands on book 3! I need to know how Selena moves on from what transpired at the end and how the team will be able to help her handle the changes in her life (without her killing them or vice versa haha).
This is the second part of the Daizeli Academy series, and let me tell you it has a lot of story, secrets, and supernatural things going on that I am enjoying them. The characters are great, Selena Foster is a telekinetic, and that makes the character quite unique and interesting by itself. I can’t wait to find out what happens next. The audiobook narrated by Stacey Glemboski was great, she did a fantastic job narrating it, and hope to hear her in the next one
4.5 star
I definitely recommend you read book 1 just before this book so you can stay amped up and addicted to the story as this book just keeps the emotions, twists and surprises coming and there are some surprises that leave you just thinking “Wow!!” I can not wait to read book 3 especially with how the book ended because that is one emotional ending!!
A thrilling and spine-chilling read!
An upcoming war…
Blackmail…
Darkness….
Will Selena be able to fight the darkness and navigate the Supernatural waters?
Before her ignorance causes trouble for all…
That opening chapter – a fantastic start! So bloodthirsty for more – this world and the characters are so complex, interesting and dark.
A terrific sequel to Heir of Shadows. Such an exhilarating and spine-chilling book! Could not get enough of Selena and friends.
Bloody hell – this book was so full of emotion, action and deceit. Such a promising dark read.
Full of powers, darkness, blackmail, secrets, lies, destruction, Supernaturals, pain, trust, betrayal, surprises and loyalty.
Perfect for readers of paranormal and horror.
