My Thoughts
I have been waiting for months for the second installation in this trilogy and I'm excited to say that it exceeded by expectactions. The first book left off with Dasheen, whose nickname is Angel, discovering she was a vampire hunter and that her high school was filled with vampires, djinns, and other creatures that she had believed were only legends. Her brother had been taken captive and was being turned by some rogue vampires. There's a handsome guy named Rafael who Angel is very drawn to but she has no idea why. In the second book, you learn there is much more to this story than just vampires. There is a society of beings called the Thunderkin and one of them is set on releasing an ancient evil that could destroy both the human and vampire worlds. Angel must save her brother, learn Rafael's secrets, and help her friends defeat the evil Wasiki, all while learning some pretty intense secrets about her own past including who her real mother was and what her tie is to Rafael.
I really loved this story and how the author managed to incorporate so many myths and legends, many of which I was unfamiliar with. With so many straight vampire stories out there, its refreshing to see someone mix it up with some new supernatural aspects. I loved reading about the Thunderkin, their abilities, and Angel's part in their world. One of the other unique aspects of the story is that its written as a series of blog posts, which I thought was really original. Most of the story is from Angel's point of view, but this time around, you also hear from her friend Elin and even the elusive Rafael. This is a quick paced story that you can easily read in one sitting. I only hope the author doesn't leave me hanging too long before releasing the final installation in the trilogy.
