Blood Skye by Donna Grant

4.0

The ongoing battle to save the Skye Druids gains vital new information in this exciting tale of magic and betrayal. 

Carlysle was a big soft marshmallow. As soon as he heard Song's story, he folded like a cheap suit and gave up his enmity towards her. Song was understandably wary of Carlysle, but he wore her down with the gentle way he took care of her and worked with her. I enjoyed this enemies-to-lovers progression.  

The action and betrayals came fast and furious, leaving the Skye Druids with a marked lack of breathing room. Carlysle and Song's journey to the truth was thrilling and I can't wait to find out what will happen next. 

I feel like I can sum up this series as each book brings a new couple together, and it is fun and interesting to see these characters develop and grow. But the overarching storyline develops very slowly and new twists are introduced around every corner. Our lineup of heroes keeps growing, and they have enemies from multiple sides, all seemingly unrelated to each other. 

This quote from the book encapsulates my feelings on this series perfectly: "There are no answers," he replied and focused his gaze across the landscape. "Just more questions. A never-ending sea of them. Each one more tormenting than the last." Amen, brother. 

All of this is meant to say that Blood Skye is book 6 in the Skye Druids series and I definitely recommend that you read the series in order, otherwise you will miss too much world building. If you can, read some of the other books that all form part of this interconnected Dark World. 

Thank you to the author and Netgalley for providing me with a copy. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
