"She walked as she always walked in these dreams. Slowly. With no thought of where she was going. She only knew that within this forest, a dark angel walked on her right and her mate walked on her left." (Opening scene, Prologue of The Secret)From the opening lines to the very last page, I was bound by the magic of Elizabeth Hunter's The Secret. The apprehension I was feeling over knowing this book would wrap up Ava & Malachi's story line vanished, as their story unfolded in an achingly beautifu...
Okay – first off I have to say that my first feeling upon finishing this book was disappointment.I. Was. Disappointed.BUT (come back, Elizabeth! We can still be besties!) that disappointment was because this really does end the arc for Muh-LAH-chee (I CANNOT HELP MYSELF!) and Ava. That makes me sad. I want to know more!The second feeling (I’m making an open-faced sandwich here; or a sandwich with the delicious cheese on the bottom, the meat of criticism in the middle, and a tiny layer of…decepti...
I'm a little torn about how to rate this book. The first two thirds were really, really slow. So much talking, strategizing, traveling... politics, secrets... Sure, the previous books weren't an action fest either, and the whole series stood out from the mass of PNR with its placid and graceful writing style, but at least in the prequels, there was lots of stuff going on. In a nutshell: I was bored most of the time. I still loved the majority of the characters and Ava and Malachi made my heart m...
First time in Kindle Unlimited!So excited to announce that the entire Irin Chronicles series is in Kindle Unlimited for the next few months. I don't put much in KU, so if you're a KU reader, grab it while you can!➜ Amazon: http://amzn.to/2aHGk17
This was a satisfactory finish to the story of Ava and Malachi. All the ends were fairly neatly tied up and everyone got their just desserts. The last page was predictable but still emotional ( just a little tear in the eyes).However the book as a whole did not really zing from beginning to end! In fact it dragged for most of the time. We spent an amazing amount of time in the bedroom with our two apparently insatiable lovers which became just a tad repetitive. In between bedroom scenes there wa...
4.5/5What a lovely ending to this series! Irin Chronicles always had a captivating, vivid world-building as a background to the unique story of scribes, angels & Grigori. As a plus it's set in Europe not in North America or UK, and the reader can enjoy hopping on a train and travelling from Istanbul to Italy to Vienna and many other locations without feeling like he is crossing big cultural and territorial borders. Europe is compact, cosy and utterly charming, and the author passes that charm on...
4.5 stars.Elizabeth Hunter saved the best for the last. This book finally delivered the answers to the questions that I have grappled with since book 1. It's nice to have a story finally draw together all the loose ends.Ava and Malachi experience a role reversal, as Ava found herself trying to help Malachi rediscover his past and his history. It was nice to finally see them as a couple and dreaming together. My favorite sentence was "I am for Ava!" I think that sentence encompassed all! What I l...
I’m not in the mood to write a long review.This one is an excellent adult fantasy series/chronicles.The story, the world building is unusual and for once, we’ve got a wonderful hero who experienced the unthinkable to be with the heroine. ❤️It started with the heroine who have been told she have a mental illness because she hear voices since forever. Lucky for her she have rich parents, so she doesn’t need to end up in a mental hospital.In one of her trip to try to get better and find another psy...
Well there were several 'secrets" to this story and I really can't tell you about any of them since I don't do spoilers.Ava and Malachi continue putting their relationship back together after the events of previous books. The enemy Fallen become a bit murky where some of their motivations actually lie (this started giving me a headache). There are plots within plots here.Ava has the power to bring Malachi's power back to some unknown extent but she is still holding back (this was somewhat frustr...
he Secret kept a fairly clipped pace with revelations, twists, altercations and intense battles.Hunter brought the scenes with the Angels, councils, and the battles to life. I am loving two particular Angels and hope we see more of them, one you know of as Death and the other sometimes takes the form of an innocent pet. You’ll have to listen to discover for yourself. Spoilers darling! We see growth from our characters, say goodbye to some and watch friendships and relationships strengthen and de...
LOVED LOVED LOVED EVERY SINGLE WORD! Amazing. Elizabeth Hunter can do no wrong. EVER. What a fanfreakintastic end to Ava & Malachi's story. And I'm SO HAPPY that EH will be continuing with more future stories from this Irin world and I cannot wait to dive into them all.
Why yes, I did binge read the whole trilogy in one day.
The Secret is probably more aptly named 'The Secrets' and those secrets are game changing for the Irin/Irina, and the truth behind them answers most of the questions that have been dangling in the previous two books. I really liked The Secret and the way that things came together- we've been given peeks into the angels' plotting and their goals finally become clear as they finish moving Ava and the Irin in into place with Joran and his allies and enemies makimg their moves in the endgame. As to
