Dark Consort (The Dark Dreamer Trilogy #2)
By Amber R. Duell. 2019
Nora has faced the horrors of the Nightmare Realm and put a stop to the Weaver. But the girl that…
went in isn’t the same one who has come out. Now, as the Lady of Nightmares, Nora’s next passage to the Night World will be permanent. Months in the Day World have already taken their toll on her new identity. Her body aches from the strain of magic and her mind are tormented by a powerful darkness. The only thing holding her together is the thought of returning to the place that beckons her as much as it terrifies her. The Sandman knows Nora needs to return to her realm, but that doesn’t mean he has to like it. Especially when he sees firsthand what happened in the Nightmare Realm since she left. Not only have the nightmares become restless, but Rowan stole the Weaver’s Keep and is gathering an army strong enough to rip the magic from Nora so she can dominate the realm. If the Sandman can put off the inevitable for a few more days, he will. When Nora finds her own way back to the Nightmare Realm, her relationship with the Sandman stretches thin, but there isn’t time to dwell on hurt feelings. Not when she’s delivered straight to Kail, the masked nightmare that got her into this mess. Unfortunately, her allies are too few and Kail’s desire for Rowan’s death seems to burn as brightly as her own. Nora must decide whom to trust if she wants to survive the Nightmare Realm. And, if she wants to reclaim what’s hers, she must embrace the darkness within. READ BOOK TWO IN THE DARK DREAMER TRILOGY NOW? Don't know where to begin?

The Sandman is doing his best to plan Mara's defeat, but secrets threaten to tear everything apart. In the thrilling conclusion to the Dark Dreamer trilogy, Nora and the Sandman must face old friends, dead enemies, and new betrayal if they're going to keep the Ever Safe shut.

of Maggie Stiefvater's Mercy Falls Series and Sarah J Maas’ Throne of Glass. “I cleared my entire reading schedule for this book. I stayed up well beyond when an exhausted parent of extremely energetic triplets should stay up to read this book. I used the few quiet seconds I get during the day to read this book. I declined a call from my mother to read this book. I kept my spouse up with the light from my kindle screen reading this book. It was all worth it.” - Verified Reviewer "You are unbroken." Princess Isabelle of the New Kingdom has lived her entire life in the confines of her palace. In her spare time, she hunts and feeds the poverty-stricken Voiceless—people of the Old Kingdom who warred with the New Kingdom and lost. Yet she remains unfulfilled; she dreams of a world beyond the walls of her home. As the only remaining child of the king and queen, she is to be married off by her eighteenth birthday—a prospect she’d rather not think about. "My father said that magic died long ago. It was evil, cursed, and wicked. My father is a liar." When Izzy witnesses the use of forbidden magic in the woods outside the palace, she is attacked and saved by Fray, a Voiceless servant from the castle. As the two become friends, they seek out the magic users who tried to kill her, determined to get to uncover the truth. Little does Isabelle know, the servant boy harbors a secret about his people that the king has tried to bury—a dark ability that the Voiceless can no longer evoke. Yet something more sinister is brewing, and to save her family, Izzy must reverse what was done to Fray and his people. She must give them their voices back, even if it unleashes a terrifying power.

Runner-up for the 2008 Ethel Wilson Fiction Prize On a stifling August day, six-year-old Clare Fraser and seven-year-old Rudy Vantwest…
make eye contact from opposite sides of their street. For an instant they are connected, then each turns away Clare to the shelter of the garden sprinkler, Rudy to the excitement of his brother’s impending birth. Twenty-five years later, Clare and Rudy, strangers living continents apart, fixtures of each others memories and imaginations, are connected again. Overturning the guarded, insular lives they both lead, two events one an accident, the other an act of terror transform them both and bind the Vantwest and Fraser families irrevocably. Adam’s Peak weaves back and forth between a Montreal suburb and a Colombo private school, between a Ceylon tea estate at the end of the Second World War and a small Scottish town in the early 1960s, its characters struggling desperately to come to terms with themselves and with their powerful connections to the people and places they have tried to escape.
