Stones of Time (Damewood)  Erin DuranteThis is a continuation  of the story begun in Demons of the Past (Damewood).  It explores Nadia's  relationships with other characters in more depth.  Her childhood friend is a drug/alcohol addict, she more easily deals with this reality and is able to move away from the romantic feelings she had for him in book one, and comes to a point where she can embrace his new love and happiness.  Her protector/friend, Vestro, is having his own difficulties, and she remains loyal and able to defend and protect him while he struggles with experimentally-induced schizophrenia.This book also drives home some of the points the author began in book one.  Our demons of the past --discrimination, indecision, fear, genetic experimentation, self-centeredness, war, etc.--are still haunting us.I was surprised when I came to the end of the book, because I wanted to know more about the outcome of the war.  I'm always sorry when a book with characters I enjoyed comes to an end.  Thankfully, there is one more book in the Damewood Trilogy so I will be able to revisit these characters.
