(Spoilers)This books went by so fast. It all seemed like set up to a rescue but then the book was over. It was all about James. There was no Elise. But it hardly mattered it was so masterfully done when you can leave out a main character and still have a great book. It answered so many questions again and set into motion a future that can go so right or so wrong. Even after I read of James' betrayal all I could think of was "wow, I never ever would have thought he'd do that ". And the tension between Nathaniel and James is so moving. I love that angels are not what you think they are. What a wonderful, fascinating gift to this genre. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE NATHANIEL!!! This kid rocks! All the spells he can do, magic his father wasn't capable of believing that anyone but he could master. His sense of loyalty and that typical pre-teen boy trying to be a man, stay strong...don't cry. But what's going to happen to him now that he's fallen into Metaraon's hands? James, WTH have you done now.And don't even get me started on all the ways James has disappointed me. How does one lie for 10+ years, to the woman he supposedly loves?!?!? Does he even know what that word means? Was it all just an arrogant thirst for knowledge that led him to take the oaths and destroy so many lives? And what's with the whole 'my son' bit before you-know-who takes Nathaniel? Yes, we got James' side of the story. Yes, we found out just how warped he is (part Angel?)....but damn the action just wasn't as, I don't know, seemed weak compared to the ways Elise kicks ass. I know some are going to say it's because James is and Aspis not a Kopis but did he not pick up anything from Elise? Now I have to go and get the last book in the series. Do I still want Elise and James to have a HEA...hell no! She deserves better. I want Nathaniel back safe and sound. He and Elise can become a team. Malcolm, what kind of role will Malcolm play now that he knows the truth.
Do You like book Defying Fate (2013)?
Still a little confused but I will continue on to the last book just to finish it.
