Archangel's Light

I love the relationship between Illium and Aodhan. I love these characters! But I hate that this relationship did not get the same treatment as all of the other heteronormative relationships in the series. 

Give me spice! Give me sex! Give me passion! I'm disappointed that Nalini shied away from portraying their relationship in the same way as all of the others.

Decent latest instalment. I think I'm getting tired of this series, or maybe  the author is bored. Doesn't have the spark of the earlier books. 

I always include major spoilers (hidden), to help with my memory issues. Read them at your peril! 

Aodhan is in China as Suyin's acting second. Raphael sends Illium out to assist, in the hope that Aodhan will want to come back with him.  Something sinister lurks in the forest - Lijuan's son, stunted and mentally broken, has been killing and skinning everyone in the village designed to care for him. The past story of Aodhan and Illium is interspersed with current events. No sex. 

ILLIUM AND AODHAN'S BOOK! Was utterly delighted to see them finally come together, and also to see them overcome their issues with not just each other, but their respective pasts too. Especially loved how it was clear their strong friendship was the rock upon which their romantic relationship was built
