It's no Evermore, but it's still good In the newest installment into the world of the Darkyn, we revist Valentin Jaus, who once again finds love, even if he's not looking for it. My greatest grievance for this novel is the pace. I do not feel that there was an adequate chance to develop Lilling's character, and though the focus seems to be on Jaus, he is not explored either. Viehl has many different storylines occuring in this novel. Regrettably, there seem to be so many that nothing can be adequately tied up in one book. It is still a good foray with her characters, but not one of my favorites. | ||
Fantastic What I love about Lynn Viehl's Darkyn series is that it can be so dark, o morbid, and so true to life and yet be paranoraml enough that it still remains fantasy--and not an invasion on my wish to escape reality with a good book. Twilight Falls was a really entertaining read. I was sorry to see it end. | ||
ALL of the books in this series are Fantastic The Darkyn novels are such a great read. Before I'm even finished I'm wishing the next one is already out. You will not be disappointed if have read the others in the series. BUy, Buy, BUY | ||
3 stars Her gift allows Liling Harper to heal in ways that defy medical explain, but can she heal the broken heart of an immortal Darkyn Lord? Against all odds, the woman Valentin Jaus loved survived being infected with his blood, though it should have killed her. When he meets Liling, he finds someone desperately in need of help only he can give. There are those who want to use the young woman for all the wrong reasons, who see her as nothing more than an experiment. Keeping her safe makes V alerting;'s heart long to open and love her, but does he dare? *** Twilight Fall is a moving story, but I strongly suspect that you need to have read the prior five books in the series to truly appreciate it. Some of the terminology and mythos was difficult to follow as a result of. Ms. Viehl makes a good use of language and showcases the diversity of her characters effectively, and one cannot help but appreciate the beauty of her writing. There is one scene that sensitive readers may wish to skip as it edges towards vulgarity, but as it does not contribute to the plot, this should not be a problem. *** Amanda Killgore for Huntress Reviews | ||
Good installment in the series Viehl has added another satisfying story to her vampire series. I wish we saw a bit more of Val and Liling and a bit less of Alex, Cyprian, and JohnCrazy. And maybe there's a tad too much medical jargon, but it makes sense considering who the characters are and what they're facing. It's still an enjoyable read because I like those characters. (Okay, maybe not John.) Best of all, Viehl is still writing in the same genre in which she began: intelligent, multilayered, paranormal romance. | ||
