A MAN BETRAYS HIS OWN KIND Following events of Available Darkness Season One, John finds himself one year later working for the very enemy who had hunted him for so long -- the government.
The woman that he loves, Hope, had had her mind erased and the only way he can ever find her again is to fulfill his duty, which means betraying his own kind.
A CHILD STRUGGLES TO CONTAIN THE MONSTER WITHIN 11-year-old Abigail, now living with the curse of being a vampire, struggles to survive in a lonely existence where every feeding weighs on her soul and overwhelms her with darkness.
How close can she come to the abyss before she is pulled in?
A WOMAN REMEMBERS Hannah Quinn had the almost-perfect life -- a blossoming flower business, a loving boyfriend, and she was genuinely happy for the first time in years. But an accident is about to throw her entire life into chaos, leaving her with the question -- "Who am I?"
A DARKNESS LOOMS When a new portal appears, and an ancient evil threatens to destroy the world, John must fight not only to save those that he loves, but to save the entire world. But time is running out, and the Darkness will wait for no man.
Available Darkness: Season Two is the nail-biting, heart-pounding, second part of the Available Darkness Trilogy.

Sequels sometimes have the tendency to disappoint... not the case here. This one deals with events and consequences that are derived from the climax of the first book and delves deeper into the characters, portals, Otherworld creatures, Harbinger, and more. It had everything I wanted and more. Platt and Wright excel at writing fast, character driven stories that know how to put you on the edge of your seat, couch, or bed (depending on where you're reading from). I don't want to give any spoilers but let's just say everything that builds in the first one explodes in this second volume. John, Hope, Abigail, Larry, Jacob and some new characters are back and the threat to humanity has never been more dire than now when they're faced with the plan that Jacob has hatched.

Quickly after finishing season one of Available Darkness, I continued to season 2 and wasn't disappointed. While I liked season one, this second season really got me hooked.
As in all of the Colective Inkwell series, the characters feel real and believable, not stereotypical at all. They make you turn the pages as quickly as you can so that you get to know what happens to them next. For me, that's the sign of a great story well written.
