Visions Of Darkness Trilogy

Rate this book
BOOK ONE

Every night, I see through someone else’s eyes.

Someone who feels nothing but joy and revenge.

My therapist calls them nightmares. My mother calls them bad publicity. But the dreams are getting worse, an alley burning with dark light, a boy clutching a strange book, and my missing father riding toward me on a white horse.

Until I realize it was never him.

Then a boy loses his foster parents in a murder-suicide. He has no birth certificate. No known family. No one even knows his real name.

Now he has vanished.

I’ve seen him before.

In my dreams.

The search draws me into a hidden New York of strange graffiti, shadows that move on their own, and Alderman, a cryptic soothsayer who claims I am one too.

A Seer.

He says my visions may be the only warning this city gets.

But the closer I come to finding the boy, the more I wonder whether he needs saving at all.

Because the rider on the white horse is already here.

BOOK TWO

We stopped the Child from tearing down the barrier between worlds.

Now he rules the other side of it.

The boy I once tried to save has become the Red King, and from an ancient demon throne, he can twist any demon into his creature. He is building an army large enough to consume Earth.

To stop him, Logan, Max, and I cross into the demon realm, where time moves differently and humanity wears away with every day we remain.

There, we find someone we never expected to see again.

Our father.

He has a plan, a crown forged from demon blood and bone, quenched in my blood, that can turn the Red King’s army against him.

But I am the only one who can wear it.

Every demon I bend to my will becomes another soldier in our fight.

And another piece of me belongs to the realm we came to destroy.

To save the world, I have to wear a crown made for a monster.

BOOK THREE

Death paid me a visit.
He wanted me to know exactly where the end of the world would begin.


Central Park. Two days.

Now the Red King’s portal has torn open above New York. His legion is flooding the streets, and the Horsemen ride at his side. We’ve beaten two of them already.

The rest will not fall so easily.

And Death cannot be killed.

But he might be caged.

The Box of Oryx lies hidden in the tomb of an ancient Seer, the only weapon capable of stopping the Horsemen. Max and I have to find it before War does.

Somewhere in the chaos, my twin brother, Logan, has disappeared.

I’m a Seer. I’m supposed to see what’s coming.

Nothing could have prepared me for this.

Books 1-3 of the Visions of Darkness trilogy, an urban fantasy of demons, Horsemen, ancient magic, and one Seer fighting to save a city on the brink.

After the first couple chapters, the plot got really good. A few words out of place, maybe due to a typo being turned into the wrong word, but nothing I couldn't get past. Sometimes dialogue from more than one person was in the same paragraph, so it took a bit to figure out who was saying what. And the ending was sudden and anticlimactic. The story as a whole captured my attention and I read it faster than the other books I've read lately.

Not bad

Great story. Very different from others. Very interesting too. I thought I will see Freya and max in some romance but not even a kiss.

So dry

Wow was this series hard to get through, there's hardly any detail or character dynamics and personality. I don't recommend.
