Date: 04 20, 2013
The concluding half of the three series; Touch, Champion of the Sidhe, and Rise of the Unseelie, in the reading order preferred of the three intertwining series.Enchanted:  London makes a turn here that will set her as an enemy to the Unseelie group.  And just might damage any chances of her cure to the Touch.Bloodhound:  Donovan has the earthborn Sidhe, the Unseelie now, training for what's to come.  To be the strong to fight and protect.  Malcolm seems to start to settle with his new company of people.  They are to become the Elite Donovan once had in the Mounds.  It'll take time, but he'll get them there...it's Malcolm that might be the wild card in all.  New pets acquired by the Unseelie.Protector of the Light:  Lugh makes a new ally and is introduced to London.  Lugh learns of the Fade affecting others, and what is happening to him.Compelled:  People from previous stories show and London makes a trip with the hopes of a backup resource of the Touch.  With reading all the stories as written, you'll see Compelled connecting with the Unseelie line in a tie of an item she goes on a mission for.Captivated:  London takes the plunge to pledge to one her fidelity and on call to his whim for his mission.  London witnesses the meeting of Lugh and Unseelie for the first time since the Mounds fall.  London might have found the one who can help her, but who's going to help him?Keeper of Secrets:  There are dark secrets stirring in Lugh.  This is Lugh's view, and we see up front the torment he is fighting within himself.  Fight scenes!  Start with one, one in the middle, and one in the end!  The Champion crosses with the Unseelie.Uprising:  Donovan matches up against a wizard.  Malcolm learns more of the magic in himself!  It seems Donovan had seen more in Malcolm, and we see that here.  The missing pieces of the starts of all this, starting at the fall of the Mounds.  Who, how, and why.We get the flipping sides from each character to know what is going on as the stories progress and intercept.  Don't worry about getting different views on intertwined stories.  Each point of view is different and different scenes to enhance the stories.  There is no repeating that slows the reading.  All is needed and answers questions you may have had in another story.Powers shown to the max from all sides.  And they may not be used in the way we all thought they would.  Fights are growing to a conclusion one.  Powers surface.
