Darklight picked up rather quickly after Wondrous Strange left off, so if you haven't read Wondrous Strange- you need to before you pick this one up!Lesley Livingston has a way with words that draws the reader in and holds them to the pages until the end. Her descriptions are beautiful and to the point. The plot is also amazing, I was on the edge of my seat through most of the novel, and by the end when I thought I had everything figured out- BAM, new secrets are revealed, characters areEven better than the first. I loved the addition of leprechauns and the mythology of the green man. It was cool to see how the author connected the two. Excited to see what happens in book three.

4.5 starsI really enjoyed Wondrous Strange and as soon as I finished it I picked up Darklight and read it in a couple hours. I really liked this sequel. Darklight starts right were Wondrous Strange ends. I liked that I got to know more about the characters, including Fennrys, who was one of my favorite characters. As the plot twists continued answers I had hoped to receive from Wondrous Strange were revealed.The story starts with Sonny, the Janus warrior is back in the faerie realm completing a
This is one time that I think the second book was better than the first. This book was really a 4.5 for me. I am just getting really stingy with 5 stars because I have read so many really incredible books. I liked Darklight better than Wondrous Strange, and I think it is because there was a lot more of the mystique of the Fey in it and less of the mortal realm. That may be because of the new characters that were brought in, and also that I already had been introduced to the world this book takes
Similar Books: The Iron King by Julie Kagawa, Wicked Lovely by Melissa Marr, The Hunter's Moon by O.R. MellingI've been on a bit of a Lesley Livingston kick since I read Starling earlier this year. I had to get my hands on every book she's written because I was so in love with her worldbuilding and the mythology she creates for her stories. And while I LOVED Starling and really liked Wondrous Strange, Darklight wasn't quite as good for me.To me, Darklight suffered a little from sophomore slump.
UGH!!! You'll want to throw this book at the wall(please dont) when you finish it!! Everything you don't expect to happen happens, and all the things you want to happen don't!!!Not to say this was a bad book, it was just the opposite: absolute excellence. Not only was it exquisite with its imagery and details, this storyline is endearing as well as dangerous, introducing new definitions to fantastic creatures we thought we knew so well. The deep, passionate romance between Sonny and Kelly is
