Again we find Heather and Dante fighting for their lives.
Picking up from Etched in Bone, Heather is drugged and taken
by her father, FBI Agent James Wallace.
Dante, lost to his violent and painful past is just hanging
on to the here and now with the bond he shares with Heather.
When news of what Dante really is travels through the
supernatural communities, there is no shortage on who is now
out to exploit his abilities. The Cercle de Druide wish to
force Dante into their inner circles and to stand as his
advisors. The Shadow Branch wants his world altering power,
and command with a simple phrase or word. The Coneil du
Sang want him to strengthen and purify their vampire
bloodlines. And then there is the Fallen, who wait for his
return to Gehenna to heal their dying world. However, none
are concerned with what Dante himself wants.
As Heather escapes from her father, she know she must find
Dante. Through their bond, Dante's mind is fragile and
chaotic. He is jumping from the past to the present. She
must reach him before the madness and despair take over. If
she fails, or she dies, the Dante & the world as they know
it is gone too.
This is book 5 in The Maker's Song series. I had
come
across Adrian Phoenix when I picked up her first book in my
local super market years ago, and have loved her books
since. Although you will be able to follow easily, I
recommend reading the entire series to get a stronger sense
of who and what Dante is and why he is so important to those
who stop at nothing to get access to him.
Dante and Heather fight for their lives against two
different foes to find their way back to each other. Dante,
lost to his shattered and painful past, his bond with
Heather the only thing keeping him sane, searches for
Heather and the man who stole her. Powerplays and intrigue
intensify as knowledge of what Dante truly is—a True
Blood/Fallen Maker—ripples through nightkind and mortal
societies.
The Cercle de Druide wish to guide Dante to proper godhood
with themselves as his advisors; the Shadow Branch covet his
world-altering power, power they could command with a single
word; while the Coneil du Sang plan to use Dante to
strengthen and purify vampire bloodlines. And the Fallen
wait for his return to Gehenna to heal their dying land.
Time is quickly running out and the fate of three
worlds—mortal, nightkind, and Fallen—pivots around Dante
as he struggles to piece together his shattered psyche and
gain control of his power before he rips all three worlds
asunder.
