Enemies to friends
Picking up from book 1, we meet Bronwyn Stewart a Druid who has become drough (dark) and has chosen to use Blood Magic to strengthen her magic. She draws the attention of Elias MacLean while leaving a small shop. They have a connection dating back to when they were children on Skye, before Elias made the choice to leave. He has since joined a group of Druids calling themselves Knights who are trying to find out who and why are killing Druids worldwide. Donna Grant has woven several plotlines into this story, not just the one between Bronwyn and Elias. While we do find out a little more about what is happening on Skye there is a much broader picture being painted. It’s best if you’ve read the previous book, Iron Ember, before this one. Donna Grant has also brought in characters who were introduced in her Reapers series. All of these, plus her other Dark World/Universe books are exceptional reading and worth the time. If you love to read a complete book that is part of a larger series, you can’t go wrong with Ms. Grant’s works. I was given an ARC by the author through BookFunnel and this is my honest opinion.
This, that, and the other-my thoughts
