New Book of the Day – Dreams of Gods & Monsters


Dreams of Gods and Monsters coverSYNOPSIS:

By way of a staggering deception, Karou has taken control of the chimaera rebellion and is intent on steering its course away from dead-end vengeance. The future rests on her, if there can even be a future for the chimaera in war-ravaged Eretz.

Common enemy, common cause.

When Jael’s brutal seraph army trespasses into the human world, the unthinkable becomes essential, and Karou and Akiva must ally their enemy armies against the threat. It is a twisted version of their long-ago dream, and they begin to hope that it might forge a way forward for their people.

And, perhaps, for themselves. Toward a new way of living, and maybe even love.

But there are bigger threats than Jael in the offing. A vicious queen is hunting Akiva, and, in the skies of Eretz … something is happening. Massive stains are spreading like bruises from horizon to horizon; the great winged stormhunters are gathering as if summoned, ceaselessly circling, and a deep sense of wrong pervades the world.

What power can bruise the sky?

From the streets of Rome to the caves of the Kirin and beyond, humans, chimaera and seraphim will fight, strive, love, and die in an epic theater that transcends good and evil, right and wrong, friend and enemy.

At the very barriers of space and time, what do gods and monsters dream of? And does anything else matter?

 

WHY SHOULD YOU CHECK IT OUT?

This book had us at “brutal seraph army” and kept hanging tightly through allied enemy armies, the vicious queen huntress, and stormhunters in the bruised sky.

Ever since the first book, the covers in this series have been eye-grabbingly gorgeous, evocative, and mysterious.  Just look at Karou’s intense stare and try to tell us you can walk away without knowing what happens!

And author Laini Taylor?  She’s so super cool that she can even rock hot pink hair! Check her and this 3rd installment in the DAUGHTER OF SMOKE & BONE series!
