Radiant Shadows - Wicked Lovely Series - Book 4


RADIANT SHADOWS
WICKED LOVELY BOOK 4
By:  Melissa Marr
FIRST SENTENCE
“Ani pulled open a side door to the stable.”
SUMMARY
from goodreads
Half-human and half-faery, Ani is driven by her hungers.
Those same appetites also attract powerful enemies and uncertain, including Devlin.  He was created assassin and is brother to the faeries’ coolly logical High Queen and to her chaotic twin, the embodiment of War.  Devlin wants to keep Ani safe from his sisters, knowing that if he fails, he will be the instrument of Ani’s death
Ani isn’t one to be guarded while others fight battles for her, though.  She has the courage to protect herself and the ability to alter Devlin’s plans- and his life.  The two are drawn together, each with a reason to fear the other and fear for one another.  But as they grow closer, a larger threat imperils the whole of Faerie.  Will saving the realm mean losing each other?
REVIEW
I could not put this book down.  Seriously.  I only stopped reading to eat.  It was THAT good.
Radiant Shadows centers on Ani, Devlin, and a new character named Rae.  I really like that Marr switches up the perspectives from one book to the next.  Each book in the series has a different feel to it, but the plots are all inter-laced together.  It’s just so beautifully done.
The characters have an amazing depth to them.  Ani is tough on the outside, but inside she is a bundle of nerves.  Devlin is torn apart by his sisters – War and the High Queen.  Rae is mysterious and her presence lets the reader see things from a distance.
The ending!  You will not believe it.  Oh my gosh, it is brilliant.  The story continues in February, 2011 with Darkest Mercy.
