Summary

It’s been two years since Auris escaped from the sinister Goblin prison and learned of her heritage as one of the Fae。 She is now happily partnered with her Fae lover Harrow and deeply bonded with her new family。 All seems to be going perfectly--until, somehow, the Goblin attacks begin again。 Someone, it seems, has not forgotten that Auris exists and seems determined to retrieve her。。。but who? And why?

As Auris begins to dig deeper in the mystery, old friends and new enemies appear, and Auris begins to realize that her still-shrouded past must contain the answers she needs。 But even she does not suspect how far down the rabbit hole she is about to go until Harrow is taken and an impossible ransom demand is issued。 Then, with two new companions at her side, Auris must attempt to unlock the remaining secrets of her past。 For if she cannot, she will never see Harrow alive again。

good readTerry Brooks great read as usual。 Hoping for a third book to the series。 Always keeps me reading late into the night。

Good readAfter the first book , I couldn't wait to read the second。 I hope there is another! The imagination of the author is impressive。 I really will look for other books。 HR kept me in thrall with the dragon and the scenes with stealing the inish。 Good readAfter the first book , I couldn't wait to read the second。 I hope there is another!

To know thy enemy is to conquer。 Can Auris save her mate, Hallow, from the Barghast who has stolen his soul and magic? Will she lose hers in the process?

Amazing book 。 I was so upset with how this book ended but in a good way。 I sat there for 30 min reflecting on the ending of this book。 I was stunned and upset that I finished the books so quickly。 I’m looking forward to the next book and time for me to find another amazing series like this one to read。 Absolutely wow! (I can’t go into a better review without adding spoilers。

Maybe too long since I read the first book, but it was difficult to get interested in this one。

Daughter of Darkness (Viridian Deep, #2)by Terry BrooksThe dark look at our roles in society, as the Sylvans and Goblins wage war。 Harrow and Char struggle to support Auris as she struggles against the power vacuum of her fathers defeat。I like that the story shows the responsibility of leadership。 The characters are wonderfully multidimensional, with inner monologues that explain their actions。I would recommend this sequel to the Child of light, to those readers that love dimensional fantasy。 Th Daughter of Darkness (Viridian Deep, #2)by Terry BrooksThe dark look at our roles in society, as the Sylvans and Goblins wage war。 Harrow and Char struggle to support Auris as she struggles against the power vacuum of her fathers defeat。I like that the story shows the responsibility of leadership。 The characters are wonderfully multidimensional, with inner monologues that explain their actions。I would recommend this sequel to the Child of light, to those readers that love dimensional fantasy。 This book could change your interpretation of the goblins of many Tolkien related histories。 。。。more

Brooks picks up his story two years after the events of the first novel。Auris faces a new threat in Barghast, who steals Harrow’s soul。

I like what Terry Brooks decided to do with this series。 Breaking away from his usual fantasy style and the world he mostly writes to do something different was a breath of fresh air。 But this book didn't have as much to offer as the first。 I liked it well enough but it was just a little lacking。Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for providing a copy of this book。 I like what Terry Brooks decided to do with this series。 Breaking away from his usual fantasy style and the world he mostly writes to do something different was a breath of fresh air。 But this book didn't have as much to offer as the first。 I liked it well enough but it was just a little lacking。Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for providing a copy of this book。 。。。more

Welcome back terry we missed uAnother great series by a masterful writer。 I hope there is more to come。 Timeless and implacable his work sets a high standard for all to aspire to。

Floyd A Phillips

Another great Terry Brooks Book I would recommend this book to anyone who is a Terry Brooks fan。 He just keeps turning out books that are difficult to put down。 Keep up the good work 👏

TB is as TB does。 Another great piece of literature。 Typical of the author and his style。 Read in 3 sittings。

Daughter of Darkness is an improvement over the first book。 With the world and characters built, Terry was able to dig into a story that goes deeper into Viridian Deep。 Plus, there’s dragons。 The only knock for me is with a story told from a first person view, filling pages with the inner thoughts of the character can be a difficult task。 In Auris’s case a solid third of the prose is her fawning and fretting over her love for Harrow which is appropriate to the story, but reminded me of going thr Daughter of Darkness is an improvement over the first book。 With the world and characters built, Terry was able to dig into a story that goes deeper into Viridian Deep。 Plus, there’s dragons。 The only knock for me is with a story told from a first person view, filling pages with the inner thoughts of the character can be a difficult task。 In Auris’s case a solid third of the prose is her fawning and fretting over her love for Harrow which is appropriate to the story, but reminded me of going through the teenage years of my four daughters。 。。。more

Wonderful storytelling by a remarkable author。 Loved it。

Ogre

The series started strong, but the sequel ended as weakly as his Magic Kingdom series。 Predictable and trope-filled。 Cannot recommend。

One of the worst Terry Brooks books I've ever read。 Even allowing for the fact that I thought Viridian Deep #1 was going to be set in the "Magic Kingdom for Sale: Sold" fantasy world。 (Such a disappointment)。 Brooks is all over the place--He was the very first fantasy I ever read; there weren't many when I was in high school and I'm not sure who recommended him to me。 I absolutely LOVED him (Sword of Shanara Trilogy)。 Then, "Kingdom" became my favorite book of all time; at least up until the poi One of the worst Terry Brooks books I've ever read。 Even allowing for the fact that I thought Viridian Deep #1 was going to be set in the "Magic Kingdom for Sale: Sold" fantasy world。 (Such a disappointment)。 Brooks is all over the place--He was the very first fantasy I ever read; there weren't many when I was in high school and I'm not sure who recommended him to me。 I absolutely LOVED him (Sword of Shanara Trilogy)。 Then, "Kingdom" became my favorite book of all time; at least up until the point where Questor came on the scene--the world was a bit much, but the first few chapters, WOW! Then we got some sequels, which got worse as they went along (though, yeah, I'm still hoping for more)。 And all the years after "Sword" when he wrote ad infinitum about his elves and humans et al。 Some were OK, some weren't。 Most weren't。 I picked some back up after the TV mini series; then I re-read the original trilogy (which I still enjoyed)。 But this "Viridian" series。。。no。 No more of that。 I couldn't get through "Darkness"。 。。。more

Fantastic ReadFantastic read, wow, was reading chance I got, now, could not put down。 I have to wait for another from what I belive is the best author, Terry Brooks。

Sharon Quenelle

Amazing, unique, charming story folding fairy magic with modern weaponry to achieve the victory of love。 A very imaginative tale of the use of magic, good and evil, to restore the balance of power in favor of honorable, caring folk from all lands。

Paige Frost

This book took me forever to read! It was good but I liked the first book better。

Karen

Auris continues her transition to Fae as she is attacked by old and new enemies。 She also learns how to access some of her unique powers。 This is another good series by Terry Brooks

Bobbie Kaald

A spellbinding sequel from the master of fantasy。 I could barely put it down without finishing it in one day。 A marvelous two book fantasy that I can't say enough good things。 If you like fantasy, you will love this。 Written from a unique point of view。Bobbie Kaald A spellbinding sequel from the master of fantasy。 I could barely put it down without finishing it in one day。 A marvelous two book fantasy that I can't say enough good things。 If you like fantasy, you will love this。 Written from a unique point of view。Bobbie Kaald 。。。more

This book, is amazing 😍。 I loved the first book so I got this one as soon as it was available! The emotions that came with it I laughed I cried I got angry watching these characters grow through these two books have been amazing!!!!

This was an interesting coming-of-age story, with multiple twists that keep interest alive。 It did tend to drag on, and for reason didn't resonate well with me。 Others may find it more to their liking。 This was an interesting coming-of-age story, with multiple twists that keep interest alive。 It did tend to drag on, and for reason didn't resonate well with me。 Others may find it more to their liking。 。。。more

I was really happy to see the confidence and development with Auris that she truly deserved。 The mystery of her missing memories and past are deeply intriguing and it was fantastic to see some of that revealed in this novel。 After the kidnapping of her younger sister Auris is propelled on a wild rollercoaster of an adventure to get her back and the new characters and places it brought her were really amazing。 As always the world building is in top tier Brooks fashion。 The kind of fantastical world you can see vividly when you close your eyes。 This book made me laugh, made me cry, broke my heart and gave me hope。 If you’re even slightly a fantasy lover this is a series you need in your life! 。。。more

I can only hope for another one to be written soon !As always, another GREAT story by the master Terry Brooks has been delivered。 But as this one ends, the need for another story from the master makes me wanting for the next all too soon。

It was not that long ago when I asked my local scifi reading group for some author recommendations since I was coming to the end of some series。 Everyone of them suggested Terry Brooks, everyone of them。 So I entered the world of Shannarra and have been hooked on his books ever since。 This is the 2nd book in his latest series。 I definitely recommend you read the first one, Child of Light, to enjoy the full effect of Mr Brook's world building skills。 Of course, then you will be hooked too。 Sorry。 It was not that long ago when I asked my local scifi reading group for some author recommendations since I was coming to the end of some series。 Everyone of them suggested Terry Brooks, everyone of them。 So I entered the world of Shannarra and have been hooked on his books ever since。 This is the 2nd book in his latest series。 I definitely recommend you read the first one, Child of Light, to enjoy the full effect of Mr Brook's world building skills。 Of course, then you will be hooked too。 Sorry。。。。。not sorry。 。。。more
