I really wish Eve would give us more on the other half-walker besides the one small chapter in the beginning of each book. Yea I get it, it's mainly Abigail's story but we don't really get to know much of the other half-walkers girls even though they are supposed to play a key role on the series. I think we know more about Brace and Lucy than we do the girls... which is kind of a set back for me.
Anyway, I hope the Earth half-walker is better than what Eve did to Sapha in Droning -___-
I might read the next and final installment if I remember the story by the time it comes out. (• •)v

I really enjoyed this instalment in the series. A lot more action was packed and the characters are developing depth. Fury has really grown on me. We see the girls grow in strength and their bond solidify. Bra-Abby is back on track and Lucy and Colt are as cute as ever. We get another chapter from Brace at the end which is awesome.

My reaction to the last sentence of this book? Oh, shit.. As real as everything already was, it's about to get even more real! The stakes just keep getting higher and higher, is there an end in sight? I don't know. I'm starting to get acrophobic!
I'm sure I've said it before, but I'll say it again; I just love how the male characters are all super alpha and protective of their lady loves, but at the same time, the female characters are just as fierce and protective of their loved ones. It makes for really interesting and rewarding relationship dynamics! I wish all book couples were like the ones on Jaymin Eve's books. I'm so sick and tired of whimpering, useless female MCS and standofish, asshole male MCs.
In these books there's so much love going around. And not just romantic love. There's lots of friendship love and family love. Another really great thing that happened is that Abby and Brace reformed their bond! Yay! Now they're back to being a sappy, hearts-floating-around-their-heads-when-they're-next-to-each-other couple (and back to kinda inhabiting each other's minds)! He loves her so damn much! (it kinda depresses me that I don't have a love like that of my own). There was this one dialogue where she said to him something along the lines of 'our love doesn't trump millions of lives', and he was like 'nothing trumps our love. Nothing' and OMG my heart just melted, like instantaneously. I'm so freaking in love with them as a couple! #unreachblerelationshipgoals
Ok, so, mini recap of everything that happened. After the obligatory chapter introducing the new half-walker, the book started where the previous one had left off, with everyone at the beach house celebrating Lucy and Colton's wedding (which, once again, awww). Almost right away Josian appeared and took Abby and Brace to talk to the lalunas (crazy, evil effers that they are). Tenni (the 'queen') totally admitted to them being the ones masterminding and orchestrating the release of the Seventine, and in turn, the end of the world, like it wasn't even a big deal. Abby made a deal with the lalunas, that if they gave everyone their memories back of her relationship with Brace, she wouldn't bond (meld? I'm confused at this point what each of those words entail) with him again until after the Convergence (I think that was the word). The catch was, that if she did reform their bond, then the lalunas would forever trap Josian in the stone world.
After that, they went back to First World where everyone (Walkers, fairies, pixies, Lucas's subjects, etc) was setting up camp, to prepare for the war. And, yeah, I forgot before, but the fairies were there cause Lucy's dad, the fairy prince, had showed up for her wedding. Whilst there, Josian admitted to everyone about being controlled by the lalunas and aiding them in releasing the Seventing, and stepped down from his role as princeps of the Doreen clan.
Almost right away the 5 half-Walker girls departed to Dronish, to get the next girl (Sapha). Everything happend way faster than in any of the other books! Like, it took them maybe one chapter (the last half of one and the first half of the next one) to get to Dronish, find Sapha, and get back to First Wolrd. Then came some training, conversations and bonding, blah, blah, blah.
Next big thing that happened was Abby going to Crais with Fury to investigate some weird activity that had been going on. They found out that the Seventine were planning to cut one of the sun's tethers to free enough energy to free the last three Seventine that were still trapped in the mountain prison. They actually managed to sever the tether, but Abby absorbed all the energy into herself. She linked herself to the other six girls, but it was still too much for them to contain. She called Brace to help them, and the only way for them not to die was to reform her bond to him so that they were connected again, and that way, he could also help contain the freed energy from the Crais sun (which also meant that the lalunas kidnapped and trapped Josian). They figured out that the best place to deposit the energy was in Dronish, were the planet and its inhabitants were about to go extinct due to lack of energy. All seven of them almost died, but in the end everything worked out.
Then came the part were (back in FW) Abby made a deal with the first Seventine, that she would help them get the fifth out, if in turn, they helped her trap all the lalunas inside the mountain prison. Of course, he screwed her over and got the fifth and sixth Seventine out of the prison.
Of course, after trapping the lalunas, the first order of business was to try and find Josian. But no one could find him.
Brace decided to take Abby back to Abernath for a little bit of rest, before she had to go to Earth to find the last half-Walker. And while there, and from Brace's POV, they found (with the help of Brace's mom, who btw hates Abby) Que's secret room of horrors where, inside an energy dome, both him and Josian were floating inside some kind of tanks.except it looked like Que had been meddling with something and now he was growing extremities that weren't 100% Walker.
Spoiler
As I'd predicted on my last review, Brace (and everyone else) got his memories back of his relationship with Abby. And it happened quite in the beginning of the book, which, <3 #YAAAS!.I'm sure I've said it before, but I'll say it again; I just love how the male characters are all super alpha and protective of their lady loves, but at the same time, the female characters are just as fierce and protective of their loved ones. It makes for really interesting and rewarding relationship dynamics! I wish all book couples were like the ones on Jaymin Eve's books.
