4 Stars
In the third book Lily senses that something is wrong with
Tallis and goes to find him. What she
finds is “Donnchadh” (not sure of the spelling, but this is the warrior that
inhabits Tallis) is in control of Tallis.
It takes Lily waaaay too long to figure out that Tallis isn’t in
control. I knew it almost immediately
and maybe the author was hoping to cause some suspense here, but it just makes
Lily seem daft. I still really enjoyed
this scene as it shows Lily being resourceful and in control. Eventually we get our Tallis back, but only
right before Lily must leave for her dinner with Alaire. You can imagine that Tallis is none too
pleased about this news.
Lily ends up getting another mission while she is already in
the Underground City and makes her way to the Toy Store. I remember from book 2 that Lily’s friend
Saxon (from the gym) said it was his least favorite place. Tallis and Bill both seem to enjoy themselves
immensely there. I will admit I am not
really sure how it fits in with the rest of the Underground City, except maybe
the author needed an excuse to put some sexy ladies in Tallis’s path to make
Lily jealous. There ends up being more
drama than usual while Lily is in the Toy Story and what is left over of the
book leaves Lily almost dying (more so than is typical for Lily). Alaire ends up being the problem and
conveniently the solution. Through this
Lily learns some stuff about Tallis that may end their friendship.
I really enjoyed this book.
I hope I don’t have to wait too much longer to read the next one. We got a lot more alone time with Lily and
while I don’t always agree with her logic I can see where she is coming from in
making her decisions.
