I received this book from the Author for an honest review.
An awakening is what I would say this book is as the main character, Adria, begins to find herself in both the past and present.
In this story we travel back and forth between Adria's time with the Aesidhe and her return home to fulfill the promise she gave her brother. It is a story of betrayal and honesty. A story of making and breaking of promises. One that will take you into a world that so resembles what is going on in our own world at the moment both politically and as a society. I found myself reading what was written and thinking wow these are words that you wish our leaders of today would speak. Words of understanding and truths that show why we are where we are today. And you will ask yourself, am I fully in control of how I am living or has it all been orchestrated?
Adria finds that she still has one reliable person to fall back on when she returns, Twyla her Lady's maid. Together they reforge their past friendship as Adria learns of what has transpired since she departed 3 years before. As she awaits for the return of her brother, Adria once again remembers her past with the Aesidhe and how her time with them shapes her into the woman she has become. Questions are answered and some others are asked which haven't been answered yet. Her bond with the people grows stronger and her understanding of the world around her broadens. Definitely reflects our life as we truly do live among a spider's web.
Again I am so moved by this story and where the Author is taking it. The depth of the story line and the characters he has created are simply amazing. Another well done for Jacob Falling!
