I was practically drooling to get my hands on this book and my drool was totally warranted. This book was great. Not as much romance as the first, but who's got time for loving when there's a demon horde hurling towards your city? Not to say the romance that was there wasn't a real tear jerker. I feared for their HEA at one point, but I was saved from that heart attack. Brishen and Ildiko have something so rare and precious, and I would've been so sad to see it cast aside for any reason. There was lots of action, fighting, and a general fear if the characters I loved were going to make it. This book seems very final, but I'm hoping for another addition somehow.
