I don’t know if I am the only one that struggled in any form with this one, but I did and even though I enjoyed it quite a bit by the very end, it took a little over five hours of listening before I starting feeling engaged with the story. After reading Darkfever, I understand where the author is going with it, and I understand better now why she has written it in the way she has, but it was so different from what I even imagined. I would categorize this as just paranormal fiction, there isn’t much romance until the very end.
I kept with it for one, that it was for a reading challenge and I try as much as possible to stick with a story, and that there is a reason this series is so popular. I didn’t get fully into it until the last third of the story. After reading her highlander series, I was expecting a similar tone, but Darkfever totally blew me away in the difference it is from anything else I have read from her. I was expected a romance based novel, and Darkfever isn’t really like that in any form. I obtained Darkfever through Audible, and this is the first time I had such a difficult time staying with a story, now I know that it isn’t just the format.
Now for a few years I have hesitated in reading this series, despite all the high reviews, because I had read her highlander series and I knew that this Fae series is quite opposite from it, and I was right. She is soon faced with an even greater challenge: staying alive long enough to learn how to handle a power she had no idea she possessed-a gift that allows her to see beyond the world of man, into the dangerous realm of the Fae.įor a reading challenge on Goodreads, I was to read Darkfever. The quest to find her sister’s killer draws her into a shadowy realm where nothing is as it seems, where good and evil wear the same treacherously seductive mask. When her sister is murdered, leaving a single clue to her death-a cryptic message on MacKayla Lane’s cell phone–Mac journeys to Ireland in search of answers.
