Review of Elven Dreams (Realm Jumper Chronicles Book 4) by Raven Williams



Synopsis:
Dreams are becoming nightmares and a great war is coming. 
  
The demon, Vaduxach, is using nightmares to pull humans into the war between Dark and Light.  Will he succeed?  If he does, which side will they choose? 
  
Cheyenne is a human woman with strong magical potential. She is the target of the demon and his evil plans. Will she be swayed to Darkness or remain in the Light? 
  
Relalith, an Elven Realm Jumper, is tasked with determining the cause of human nightmares. In the course of this quest he finds out Cheyenne is much more than anyone realizes, especially for him. Can he save her from the demon's clutches or will he be too late? 


Review:
Elven Dreams is book 4 in the Realm Jumper Chronicles and I have to say upfront that I devoured this book.  The author has only improved more and more in her writing and of all the books in this series, I think this is my favorite so far.  There will be more so we will see if it holds or it's replaced by the next book.  Now in the book before it, I kind of expected there to be a very epic war in book 4 since there was so much build up towards it in book 3.  We don't see that yet, but it does not disappoint!  So much action and happenings!  Vaduxach, the Demon has been very busy wreaking havoc among human dreams and he has a new partner, Cassie, who is a dark witch.  Funny enough, Cassie is manipulating him and I am not sure that he has recognized the fact yet.  And it makes me wonder if he will actually keep her around or try to get rid of her later on.  Frankly, I'm not sure who I would rather the bag guy be.  I'm not sure at this point which is actually worse.  Another mate is found among the elves and Cheyenne, a human bearing an Elven soul, has been brought to the camp where the war council is staying.  Now, they are saying she has magical abilities, but we don't really see that in this book.

Things I look forward to seeing/ hoping to see in Book 5:
- Cassie and Vaduxach try to destroy each other
-Cheyenne coming into her powers
-All about who Helena really is (Cheyenne's friend who is having dreams of being a Fey)
-Battle!  Who doesn't like a good battle between good and evil?

Ever Wrath by Alexia Purdy- Book Quote

I came across this great quote while reading Ever Wrath (A Dark Faerie Tale Book 4) by Alexia Purdy!




She was a woman of fire, water, darkness and light.  No one was her equal, not even the Ancients of Faerie, for they did not possess the strength of a human heart.  It was forever the great crevasse between them that could not be crossed.  Human and Faerie, not one,  not the other...not fully either one...but both at the same time.

Ever Shade (A Dark Faerie Tale, Book 1) by Alexia Purdy

   If people only knew her secret, they would think she was insane.  Crazy.  Why?  Because Shade hears voices in her head.  Sometimes they are so loud and insistent that she must obey whatever it is they are wanting or it just might really drive her crazy.  Because of these voices she ends up running into some interesting characters.  Jack is  a Teleen, a part of the Faerie community that Shade never knew anything about until now.  And then there is Vange (Evangeline), a witch.  Shade stumbles upon their fight and ends up following Jack back into the land of the fey to see Ilarial, an oracle.  Ilarial tells Shade that the voices inside her head are her ancestors, which are her spirit guides.  She also helps Shade to control them.  And Shade also receives unwanted news about her heritage.  The man she called dad was not her biological father.  Her father was a powerful faery.  The most shocking part about everything is that she is the only one to be able to retrieve Santiran Water and bring it back to this city, Guildrin, to help keep the faeries safe from the evil Unseelie queen and her army.  It is quite a lot for Shade to take in, but she has no real time to dwell on it since she must start out on her journey almost immediately.  But she won't be alone.  Jack and some other faeries will be with her to help protect her.  And protection she will need because the journey is perilous and nothing is as it seems in the land of the fey.  Enemies pop up in places where she is supposed to be safe, putting another kink in things. Shade ends up being blood bonded to a very reluctant former captain of the guard of the Teleen fey.  He took punishment for his brother's crimes towards Shade and now they are stuck with each other.  Between dealing with her reluctant Teleen protector, Dylan, a dangerous quest, and her powers just showing themselves, it is going to be a long journey indeed.


   This series is super addicting!  Once you start reading the first book, you just have to see it through until the very end of everything!  And the following books are awesome!  Welcome to Alexia Purdy's secret land of the fey!  It's a beautiful place, but also filled with hidden danger!  It's a must read for anyone that is a fan of faeries or fantasy books.  Watch Shade begin the journey to finding out where she really belongs and what power she really holds.  Not to mention the men who are vying for her attention.  And make sure you check out the next book in the series: Ever Fire!
