The Shadow War



The Shadow War
written by: L.C. Hibbett

Synopsis:
This world will burn…

The Shadow Children's greatest enemies have been unmasked, and the stakes are far higher than Grace had ever feared. With her friends imprisoned and the Circle determined to annihilate the Human race, Grace and The Shadow Children must prepare for war.

There is only one way to break the Circle, but are Grace and Sam strong enough to make the sacrifice?








Brandi's Thoughts:
Like the previous 2 books in the series, this one is packed with action and surprises. Sam and Grace are together and that was great to see. I was very satisfied with the final battle and the end. Everything wrapped up nicely. However, it ended like there might be a spinoff??!! :) I hope so. I loved reading about the shadow children world!! Great series!

Synopsis:
The dark is closing in…

It’s been a year since Grace’s world was ripped asunder. The Shadow Children are fighting a losing battle to rescue the halfborn from the Silent Homes. When the Spirit Demons begin to attack the Angel communities, Grace and her friends are faced with an impossible decision- battle on alone and risk losing everything or place their trust in the people who have hunted them for centuries.

With Sam by her side, Grace must negotiate her way through the secrets and lies that pave the roads of the Shadow City.

When it feels like she has everything to lose, what is there for her to gain?




Brandi's Thoughts:
Another strong story by Hibbett! Lots of action throughout the book, couldn't put it down. Grace continues to grow as a great leader! Oh yea, I just love Gabriel! I wish there was more from him in this book though.

Synopsis:
Everything you know is a lie…

Eighteen-year-old Grace is sick of running. For over two thousand years the Angels have hunted the Half-Born, determined to maintain the barrier that conceals the magical world from Human eyes. Grace and her foster family have survived capture by living amongst humans, but the noose is tightening as the spell binding their magic begins to fail.

When unexpected allies send Grace and her family crashing into the world of The Shadow Children, she finds herself at the epicentre of a battle to save those she loves.

But who can she trust when everyone has the face of an angel?

The Shadow Children is the first book in The Demon-Born Trilogy, an exhilarating series of Urban Fantasy novels. If you like action-packed fantasy that tugs at the heartstrings, then you’ll love L.C. Hibbett’s debut.



Brandi's Thoughts:
This was recommended by my book club and I sure am glad I read it! Amazing new take on Angels and Demons! L.C. Hibbett said this was her worst book bc it was her first. I thought it was an amazing first book. Vivid world building and character building. I mostly loved the strong character, Grace; that she didn't swoon over Sam right when he showed interest in her again after he wronged her in the past. She made him give explanations and just took time! It felt real and gave a good message to the young readers.
