Wanderers of the Night by Tempest C. Avery

(The Dreamer Triology #2)

Seventeen year old witch, Lily Bryg, is about to realize there's more to the three realms then she thought. In the past month she's fallen for a werewolf, met a dragon, and found out her life was depicted in an age old prophecy. Now, she needs to figure out how to get into Sidhe, the realm of the fey, in order to rescue a kidnapped friend, all while trying to win a bet she made with an evil king hell bent on making her his queen. Lily doesn't know if she believes in soul mates, but she's torn between hoping he isn't hers and being eerily drawn to him. With the help of her three best friends, a raven, and a white wolf she needs to put her heart aside and focus on fulfilling the prophecy. Everything she knows about faeries tells her they can't be trusted, but when her own coven starts to break apart she's forced to rely on anyone she can get.

If Lily can't save her kidnapped friends and convince them not to fall under the sway of dark magic, she'll have to willingly go to the evil king Ronan. He's been trying to convince her they belong together for years, and she's starting to fear he might be right. Add in the four Horsemen of the Apocalypse and Lily's task isn't looking any easier. If that weren't bad enough, it turns out she's just got a penchant for werewolves. 

Can Lily over come the three realms, or will she succumb to the wanderers of the night before she ever gets the chance?

After wiring for the contents of this book to sink in I´m ready to give my honest opinion of this book.

This one was more twisted than the first one. There were a couple of part where I just stared at my kindle and think: "Woooww.. I didnt see that one coming.

So apparently the dark king isn't as dark and wicked as he was pictured in the first book. Nothing is what it seems

The story begins right where the first book left. Larking leaves Lily after Ronan had attacked his kingdom and killed his father, he has to go back home to take his place as new king of (XXXXXX). Meanwhile Lily has to go to Sidhe to rescue Lennan (Ruarc´s niece) and she takes with her Caer, Conall, Ruarc and Arlana (she wolf). Brid and Bran stay behind to defend Moht while Lily goes rescue Lennan. While in the woods they get distracted by ( Crawlers… or Grumblings?). Lily gets lost and meets a cat that speaks only in rhyme and claims to be sent to help her get to Sidhe.  Connall and Arlana find Lily and the cat. Flynn appears in the woods and gives lily the clue for her to find the key to reach the door in Vern that will take them to Sidhe. They meet Cadfael in the mountains and gives them a rhyme to solve where the key is hidden.  They find their way and arrive to a place that keeps a lot of keys along with the "Keyper". He´s very sweet and lets them wander over the place so Lily can try and find the key. They are met by Grumblings and they fight them. Lily has a dream of Ronan and she thinks she's experiencing a kind of Stockholm Syndrome (Guess I'm suffering from the same). Ronan shows her a memory Brid has had about a guy named Una who's messing with her head telling her lies about her boyfriend (Bran, former guard of Ronan). When they get to Sidhe they discover Lennan wasn't held prisioner at all. In fact she was very well treated by the king who happened to be in love with her and she with him as well. She stays and Lily gives magic to the pendant she gave her 300 years ago so she can be the temporary queen of the Summer. They stay in the Iomlan court and Caer gets kidnapped by Cadfael and his brother who are two of the horsemen of the apocalypse. They take her to Ronan and they have to go save her. Brids head was scrambled by all the bullshit Una and his brother (the other 2 horsemen of the apocalypse ) said to her and she leaves moht to meet with the dark king and ask for answers on who killed her parents. She wants justice and wants to kill them. The horsemen told her that Ronan is not that evil and that people think he's just missing the other part of his should to be good. On their way to Ronans castle to save Caer and Brid, there is an accident at the lake.. Who saves who? …. Ronan and Lily share a short time together but its worth it. Nothing like Connall or Larkin… Whatever. They get to Ronans castle find Caer and try to save her and Brid too. Lily finds Brid torturing the men that killed her parents. When Lily arrives they fight and while Brid is distracted both men attack her. As consequence, Brid kills one of the men and Lily the other to prevent her best friend to get killed too. Brid seals the bet Lily had with Ronan of her choosing sides with him. And she has to stay three days in Ronan`s castle. 

My feelings toward The Devlin brothers and Ronan are …

I honestly hate the love triangle she has with the Devlin brothers.. She so totally into Connall/Ronan … Larkin is just temporary distraction.. She doesn't know what she wants.

Why she should stay/leave Larkin:

Stay:

1. He says he loves her.

Run to the hills:

1. Control Freak
2. Doesn't believe she can handle Ronan and his army.
3. Doesn't have faith that she´ll win.
4. Sick with jealousy for his cousin.
5. Sees Lily´s love as a competition towards his cousin.

Why she should stay/leave Connall:

Stay:

1. Sweet.
2. Calm
3. Patient
4. Controlled (Most of the time when he doesn't explodes from being mad at his love triangle situation)

Leave:

?????

Why she should stay/leave Ronan:

Stay:

1. Fun
2. Sarcastic
3. Evil
4. Charismatic
5. H-O-T
6. He wants the best for Bevain and its people with justice and some black magic... Not the same way Lily would have wanted it.

Leave:

1. He´ll do what it takes to have Lily. Even if it means killing all people from Bevain.
