Week 10 Review: Dark Skye

From Goodreads:
In this highly anticipated fifteenth novel in the Immortals After Dark series, #1 New York Times bestselling author Kresley Cole spins a sultry tale of a mighty warrior scarred inside and out and the beguiling sorceress with the power to heal him—or vanquish him forever.

ETERNAL OBSESSION

As a boy, Thronos, prince of Skye Hall, loved Lanthe, a mischievous Sorceri girl who made him question everything about his Vrekener clan. But when the two got caught in the middle of their families' war, tragedy struck, leaving Thronos and Lanthe bitter enemies. Though centuries have passed, nothing can cool his seething need for the beautiful enchantress who scarred his body—and left an even deeper impression on his soul.

ENDLESS YEARNING

Lanthe, a once-formidable sorceress struggling to reclaim her gifts, searches for love and acceptance with all the wrong immortal suitors. But she's never forgotten Thronos, the magnificent silver-eyed boy who protected her until she was ripped from the shelter of his arms. One harrowing night changed everything between them. Now he's a notorious warlord with a blood vendetta against Lanthe, hunting her relentlessly.

CAN THE HEAT OF DESIRE BURN BRIGHTER THAN VENGEANCE?

With their families locked in conflict and battles raging all around them, will Thronos and Lanthe succumb to the brutal chaos that threatens everything they cherish? Or will the fragile bond they formed so long ago spark a passion strong enough to withstand even the darkest doubts?

My first review of Dark Skye
My Review:
I of course loved this book! I loved it the first time, and I enjoyed it again this time! I really enjoy Thronos and Lanthe, they were friends as kids, but then there was all the death between their parents, and they'd already had a lot to overcome being from warring races in the Lore. So they haven't gotten along in 500 years. But then they were forced together, and I really enjoyed it!

It's funny, but a lot of stories have branched out from the prison that all these immortals were at. Nix had a lot going on to get so many characters there! From my reread, we know of at least two-MacRieve and Thronos, though I'm sure there's more.

This book almost entirely is just them by themselves. There are points where they see other people, like when they escape from Pandemonium, but mainly, they're working on their relationship issues. Of the hurt between them, both of their cultures, and of their past. Really enjoyed watching them work past it!

One of my favourite things in this book was the Nix chapter, of her petition to become a goddess. Because the Møriør are coming. I'm kinda hoping that her romance is going to be with the head of them, because they are on opposing sides! Can't wait to see it play out!

Loved reading this book, and I can't wait to continue my reread! I'm so close to getting to Munro!
