Dreams of Gods & Monsters (Daughter of Smoke and Bone)
An Amazon Best Young Adult Book of the Month, April 2014:Author Laini Taylor’s immense talent for storytelling is once again evident from the first beautifully crafted sentences ofDreams of Gods & Monsters, the third book in theDaughter of Smoke & Bonetrilogy.  For this final leg of the story, Taylor doesn’t wait around to get the action going--the book starts out with an army of white-robed angels appearing in broad daylight, seen by television crews, an awestruck public, and a young scientist named Eliza.  Eliza, we come to realize, is also a new main character narrating from the fresh perspective of an outside observer. Twists and revelations pop up from beginning to end, along with facets of the earlier novels that thrilled me to see again.Dreams of Gods & Monsterscontinues Taylor’s nuanced treatment of light versus dark, good versus evil, friend versus foe, and is everything I could want in the last of book of an already beloved trilogy. --Seira Wilson
