Eternity (Guardian Trilogy book 2)

Synopsis

This is the 2nd book in this trilogy; it starts with a look at one of Maggie’s former lives in London. It introduces a dark mysterious creature of pure evil that is intent on killing Maggie.

Eran & Maggie continue their romance, with Eran not allowing the luxury of intimacy, which may get in the way of his responsibility as guardian. Maggie thought she was safe until an old enemy arrives with a dire threat of a battle with the world’s most evil creatures. Maggie and Eran only have a few days to prepare.

Maggie discovers her true identity and why her enemies won’t give up until Maggie is dead!

Review

The plot unfolds through this 2nd book, introducing new characters such as Campion and Ms Beedenwig (whom I loved), and developing those from book 1. Maggie & Eran's history develops through the book and is a vast improvement from book 1. A lot of the unanswered questions and depth to the story are dealt with in this book.We learn about Maggie and Eran’s past lives and what Eran has had to endure to keep her safe. Some of the history is heartbreaking and you really feel for Eran. Laury’s writing has improved so much from book 1, it is more polished and the story makes much more sense.


The development of Ezra, Rufus and Felix’s characters was rather predictable, but it does pull the small group of house mates together in a good way and also makes sense as to why 2 men, a woman and an 18yr old girl would be living together.


The editing in this book is so much better than book 1, but it is such a shame there is so many spelling mistakes in the kindle edition (can’t say about the paperback version as I haven’t read it.


Finally I’m glad I bought the trilogy after all the books were written, as I probably wouldn’t have bought book 2 & 3. I would recommend reading book 2 before making a decision as to whether to continue with the trilogy, as book 2 really is such a big improvement on book 1.
I rate this book
