Darkness Breaks picks up just afterDarkness Falls (Darkness Falls Series, Book 1)ends and is worth reading for Sylas alone. I adored him and am keeping my fingers crossed for his speedy return in book three (Darkness Fades). I found the juxtaposition of him and Aiden interesting. While one openly declares himself evil and the other tries ardently to do the right thing, you are still left wondering which on is really working for the forces of good in the world. Sometimes the 'right' thing isn't always the RIGHT thing to do. It's all yet to be seen though. I think I had as many questions at the end of the book as I did at the beginning.I did start to think that maybe Kayla was a little too perfect. I realise, of course, that she was designed to be that way, but surely she needs a weakness somewhere. Her perfection started to strain the confines of credibility a little. I also started to wonder about the rest of the world. Kayla is on about saving it, but there is no indication beyond assumption that the virus has spread worldwide or that this is the last enclave of humanity. It's just a niggle, but it is there in the back of my mind.I eagerly await the next book in the series. I enjoyed the characters and the hint of a romance that is so much more than a rushed lust-based affair. A worthy continuation of the series.
