Review: WANTED TO CARE MORE ABOUT THE CHARACTERS
Rating: 3 out of 5

I enjoyed the idea of this series about Druid magical power lying dormant in certain humans, the history between Druids & Fae, and how most Fae are dangerous & cold-hearted, how their potential mass release into modern human society would be catastrophic. I liked the plot & story lines of this series. I particularly enjoyed how the main Druid characters latent magic manifested itself. Unfortunately, I found myself wishing that I cared more about the characters. In fact, I felt sometimes felt too irritated with them.In this book, Sorcha Kavanaugh's story showed promise in the beginning but it wasn't enough for me to feel sufficiently attached to her even by the end of the book. Perhaps I would have felt differently had her experience with the Fae been revealed earlier in the book. I think it would have added depth to the story, enhanced the drama and lessened much of the irritation I felt over many of Sorcha's actions.  At first, I felt that my complaint stemmed from being too accustomed to reading series with the same main couple in each book, but there is the fact that I got to know Elada Brightsword from the two previous books in this series and I still felt something was lacking.Regardless of my issues, I still consider it a decent read.
