Story4.5 out of 5 stars 15
Once he drove back the darkness. Once he loved with such passion his name was legend. Once, driven wild with grief over the murder of his beloved, the majestic Fey King Rain Tairen Soul had laid waste to the world before vanishing into the Fading Lands. Now, a thousand years later, a new threat draws him back into the world — and a new love reawakens the heart he thought long-dead. Ellysetta, a woodcarver’s daughter, calls to Rain in a way no other ever had.

For his soul-kin, the magical tairen, are dying, and only the Fey King's bride can save them...

Publisher's Summary
The second book in USA Today and New York Times best-selling author C.L. Wilson’s hugely popular, stunning, epic fantasy romance series about Ellysetta, the girl who would be queen, the Tairen Soul, and their eternal battle for true love in the mystical Fading Lands.
She feared the dark visions and the magic within her. And she dreamed of the miraculous love that could save her.
Like an enchanted fairy tale prince he stepped from the sky to claim her - the Fey King, her destiny, her one and true love.
But behind the mesmerizing beauty of Rain’s violet eyes Ellysetta saw the passionate hunger of the beast...and a sorrow, deep and ancient, that she alone could heal. Only for him would she embrace the frightening power that dwells within her. Only with him at her side could she confront the shadows that haunt her soul. For an epic battle looms on the horizon - and only united can they hope to turn back the armies of the darkness.

My favourite book series of all time!
I have the whole book series in books and just had to get the series in audiobook as well. I use my monthly subscription to get each audio book. Soo worth it. The story is absolutely incredible and you will not regret it if you try it out!! Absolutely phenomenal storyline!

I don’t know why this series isn’t everywhere. It’s SO good! The world building is next level. And the romance is *chef’s kiss* good. Love the character development and the way the story is evolving. So so good!!

A great follow up to Lord of the Fading Lands!
I love the first book but I think I almost love this second book more. We start to see more and more of Ellysetta’s ability and her bond with rain is getting stronger.
Also glad this second audiobook was re-recorded too, so now book 1 and 2 have the same narrator. As with the first book, Abby Craden did a good job with the narration. Each character voices are easily distinguishable.

performance not bad, story pissed me off
I am so sick of mmc's doing unforgivable things and then immediately being forgiven and they are making love and it's like nothing happened. he left her without even confirming she was for sure eld and then she didn't even give him any shit. imo she should have told him to go ahead with his plan to die and join his first mate and she will find her own heart mate after. I would love this series if it has taken that turn. he does, she finds a true partner where she isn't stuck playing second fiddle and she saves the world alone like a badass. She didn't even forgive him really, he left the night before their wedding after she was almost assassinated and she just acted like it was NBD. like nope, no. no.

SOOOO U*N*B*E*L*I*E*V*A*B*L*Y GOOD, I can’t believe this isn’t famous!!
The world building is BETTER than George RR Martin (better because it’s absolutely unique, not medieval European history just with dragons added), the Romance is smoldering hot and actually Romantic, not just sexy times (you won’t be disappointed there either, tho), and the characters pull you in and the strength in the “strong female lead” is developing well. Also, THE CULTURE!!!
I’m totally in love with the Fae culture of this world! The language, the poetry, the emotional impact this beautifully developed Fae culture has on me makes me actually wish I could speak this language and study this culture - High Valeryian has nothing on this language! And I’m not normally the kind to do that - I don’t “speak” Valeryian, Dothraki, Elvish, Dwarvish, Na’Vi, Vulcan, Klingon or Wookie, other than the commonly repeated words (“Dracarys” and “WAAAAARGGGHHH” come to mind).
And I’m not really a person that likes poetry, and when authors try to make up their own poetry to fit in their story, it’s usually mediocre. But the common poetic phrases C.L. Wilson created that define certain terms are so poignantly beautiful, I wish they could be adopted into our real world.
I read this series quite a few years ago, and I had re-read what books I could find at the library several times, always falling in love with the world and the story each time, but even so, I hesitated when I saw it come up in Audible. It has been at least a decade or so since I last read it, I’ve read and listened to many other great series since then, and I’ve found old favorites don’t always live up to expectations. This is especially true when listening to an audio version of an old favorite book, as the narrator can either kill, or really add to the experience. I read some reviews that weren’t kind, but eventually I gave in, and OHHH AM I SO HAPPY I DID! The narrator was just fine - there a a lot of characters in this book as it develops, and she did a great job of giving them their own intonations that well described their character, particularly with the female characters.
I am VERY happily skipping off the get the rest of the series on Audible now, as I know I will listen to this series over and over in years to come. If only this book became popular enough to get made into a streaming series!!

this is my favorite book of the series. I have listened to this series a dozen times, maybe more. One of my go-to series when I need step away from reality.
