My Review:
Wandering by C.E. Dimond *3.5 Stars*
I had high expectations for this prequel. I was hoping to have the answers for my questions regarding the first book on this series through Eamon’s perspective. It was very interesting to know how he ended up being the one chosen for the mission and see more of his personality. I liked to see how determined he was to prove that he was capable to do whatever it was needed to get the mission done. I was also nice to know more about Boradheaven’s culture and be able to visualize the settings. Through Eamon’s POV I was able to understand in depth the coven story and know more about each member of his family. I had some answers for my questions regarding the first book of this series, however, I also started to have new ones. Eamon’s complaints regarding his father’s treatment toward him seemed a bit excessive. I also think that the physical characteristics of Eamon were over mentioned and he also seemed a little bit contradictory sometimes, but I still like him and loved to see more of him. I have high expectations regarding the next book. Overall 3.5 stars

All I can say is YES! I actually was not expecting there to be a prequel to the first book and when I found out the Author was writing one from Eamon's point of view? I was beyond excited. It did not disappoint.
Through the first book in the series, we know Eamon is sort of rude, and broody (to say the least). In this novella you get a glimpse as to why. The boy lost his mother at a young age, and from what I can tell, after that, his father just went cold. Less of a father, more of a platoon leader if you get my drift?
Patrick O'Neill seemed to take the classic, but awful, 'let's not talk about it and it'll just go away' approach to dealing with his son's and even his own grief. That obviously led to a lot of pent up teenage anger and put a huge wall between he and his son where they cannot connect properly. Sad, but not uncommon.
I loved how we got more history about the Broadhaven Coven and each of the families. We got more page time for all the supporting characters and got more insight into who they are and how their dynamics are. I really loved that *Semi-Spoiler alert but not really?* the novella leaves off at the point where Eamon and Finn first meet in Awakening. It was a definite Fangirl moment for me.
Overall I really liked this book. It's short, because it's only a Novella but it's a great companion to the first book and an easy read. I NEED MORE OF THIS SERIES LIKE NOW!

I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review.
I'd give this book more like a 3.8 than a 3. It was really great to get more backstory on Eamon after reading "Awakening." I like his character a lot, and am so curious to see how his story plays out with Finn in the next book. I felt like the author has really cleaned up her style a lot from the first book, where I had some issues with the formatting. This time the paragraphs were a more manageable size, and things really flowed a lot better. There were still some editing issues that I would love to see resolved, mostly basic typing errors, but they weren't so prevalent that they got in the way of my enjoyment of the story.
I positively flew through this book, and would define lay recommend it in conjunction with Awakening.
