When Darney Reached out asking if I would like to review book two of his “Resthaven” series. I had to agree. I needed to know what would happen to Tommy and the rest of the gain.
So let me start by saying that I felt this book's flow went a little slower than the first book. That being said, that is the only negative thing I have to say about the book.
I really enjoyed the characters that we had come to love, and cheer for. While he also brought new characters to life. The main plot is the same. Donnor and his made family and son, are walking with the army they had created. Trying to spot the Ondilaani, from killing everyone and everything. I felt that we got another deeper, almost newer understanding of each character.
This is shown in one way, with Tommy and Ari. The growth and healing that both of these went through. It shows how strong each character became. I also enjoyed getting a new look at Mikus. I felt like in the first book, we got a small look into this character. While in book two, we get more into his thinking, and build up.
I felt the war scenes were done with taste, and talent. Neither over doing the details or cutting them short. It was interesting to see the Ondilaani get more detailed. And learn more about these beastly things.
All in all, I am very happy with this story, and the way things went. Which is why I gave it a 8/10 rating. And why I am excited to continue the story with book three “Windysprings”.
Thank you Colin for giving me “Silverlake” to review.
