Courting Darkness (Otherworld/Sisters of the Moon #10)
It's Winter Solstice, and Aeval welcomes me into her Court of Darkness. With Morio still dangerously weak from his injuries and Vanzir alive only thanks to my silence, the thought of training under Morgaine doesn't seem as daunting as it did. But then, Hyto returns to shatter my life. Captured and swept off to the Dragon Reaches, can I manage to stay alive long enough to escape, even as Smoky's father intends to break my spirit, then my body?
Camille D'Artigo has a problem - several, actually. Demons are trying to break the seal between worlds so they can take over Earth, and only she and her sisters have a chance of stopping them. Her fae father has disowned her for joining forces with the Earthside fae Queens. And her father-in-law intends to kill her. After he breaks her - body and spirit.While darker than the previous novels in this urban fantasy series, no character is stronger than the half-human, half-fae Camille. With the
While I feel that Galenorn's writing and storytelling has improved over the course of this book series, I can't help but be a little disappointed in this book. There is just too much going on. The original jist of these books was that the girls were tying to find all of the spirit seals to prevent all hell breaking loose and the first few (5?) books had them on that track. I can't remember the last one that followed that plot line. I suppose character development and additional stories are
I have enjoyed every other book in this series so far, but Camille is getting on my last nerve. She is very full of herself as far as her looks go, and since she is narrating the story we get to hear about that for he first half of the book. Also, Camille's stories are getting very 'porn'y. I skipped pages trying to get past the gratuitous sex scenes and back into the story. About halfway through the book it got better. Camille stopped talking about her sex appeal as much and the story got
This is my second Otherworld read and also my second Camille novel. Camille and her two sisters are half fae, half human. They and their extended family and friends are waiting for a war to start with a demon. Meanwhile, one of Camille's husband's father having decided that his troubles are the fault of Camille and his son, he has decided they need to die and torture will be an appetizer to what he ha planned.
Rating: 4 starsBrutal, angst-ridden and chaotic, Courting Darkness swept me along in a rush of primeval lore, sinister beings, and unanswered riddles. At the heart of it all, is the exquisite, lusty and resilient Camille, half-fey, part mortal, High Priestess, sister, wife, and matriarch in the making. Oh yes, after reading this novel, one day, this sensual bombshell will rule her family and more. Much more.Of course, Camille is my favorite of the three sisters. I identify with many of her
5/5 ⭐ This was definitely a heavy installment but it was really really good. Im glad to see Camilles powers getting stronger, and her relationship with the Moon Mother is really awesome as well. This book had me cringing a lot, but it was a good continuation of the series.
