Dark World continuation
This is the first book of the Skye Druids series, but follows immediately after Dark Alpha’s Command. In this book we meet Elodie MacLean, who has come back to Skye to help her sister get their parents’ house ready to sell. A terrible tragedy happened over a decade prior, but since neither sister, nor an absent brother plan on living in the house it needs to be cleaned, repaired and sold. Elodie is a druid, but her magic has been gone since the tragic event. She meets Scot Ryan, and the brother of his best friend are on Skye, having come from Edinburgh to try and solve the murders of Druids there. They are looking for Elodie, and when they meet her, and hear she is looking for help to get the cottage repaired, they offer their services. Donna Grant weaves an interesting story reminiscent of her earlier Dark World books. She plots out an intricate storyline for the reader to follow, and while following we get glimpses of other characters from prior books. I can say that the start of this book dragged for me-I couldn’t figure out who these characters were and why they were important. But Donna Grant had a plot, and it is full of twists and turns, and leads the reader to a satisfying conclusion. I received and ARC of this book from the author through BookFunnel and this is my honest opinion.
This, that, and the other-my thoughts
