Fresh Fiction Review

A Sliver Of Shadow
Allison Pang

Reviewed by Kathyrn Little
Posted June 14, 2012

Fantasy Urban

Abby doesn't have a lot of time to figure out how she should approach her new role, but she is back in A SLIVER OF SHADOW just as witty and intelligent as before. She is truly a strong female character and doesn't lean on anyone. The idea of a touchstone is interesting and is more developed in A SLIVER OF SHADOW. Readers will meet a few new characters in A SLIVER OF SHADOW. The love triangle develops further and you may be a little closer to taking sides following the end of A SLIVER OF SHADOW. Abby's character has matured and she learns more than a few surprising things about her past. She will snag your attention early on in the book and hold it the whole time. Her two potential love interests are very different from each other, you will find yourself taking sides quickly. The other characters are interesting, Allison Pang's take on other paranormal characters is unique. Overall, this book shouldn't be missed by Pang's fans.

SUMMARY

WAR IS HELL. AND WAR WITH HELL IS NO FUN EITHER. Just when her new life as a TouchStone—a mortal bound to help OtherFolk cross between Faery and human worlds—seems to be settling down, Abby Sinclair is left in charge when the Protectorate, Moira, leaves for the Faery Court. And when the Protectorate’s away . . . let’s just say things spiral out of control when a spell on Abby backfires and the Faery Queen declares the Doors between their worlds officially closed. The results are disastrous for both sides: OtherFolk trapped in the mortal world are beginning to fade, while Faery is on the brink of war with the daemons of Hell. Along with her brooding elven prince Talivar and sexy incubus Brystion, Abby ventures to the CrossRoads in an attempt to override the Queen’s magic. But nothing in this beautiful, dangerous realm will compare to the discoveries she’s making about her past, her destiny, and what she will sacrifice for those she loves.
