BLOG TOUR: Rapture (Elfin Series Book 2) by Quinn Loftis

Rapture (Elfin Series Book 2)


By Quinn Loftis


Synopsis


Triktapic, the deadly dark elf assassin, has been restored by the Forest Lords to his rightful place as king of the Elven realm. Now, he must face his former comrades as he attempts to stop Lorsan, king of the dark elves, from enslaving the human race. Lorsan has already begun distributing Rapture, the irresistible drink that destroys those who unknowingly become addicted to it. Will Cassie, his Chosen, be able to give Trik the strength he needs to face his dark past?

Meanwhile, Cassie’s best friend, Elora, is in a fight for her own life. Elora, her mother, Lisa, and a small band of light elves have traveled deep into the dark elf realm in hopes of rescuing Cassie and Trik. But their mission quickly turns into a battle for their own lives as they are surrounded by Lorsan and his warriors. Though outnumbered ten to one, the humans and elves fight heroically. They fight for a King once lost, but now found. They fight for the human realm that doesn’t yet know it is in need of saving. They fight for love; a love that has already been discovered and a love that is waiting to be revealed. Despite their valiant efforts, the band is captured and held captive by the dark elf king.

The peaceful world that Cassie and Elora knew is long gone, shattered by their realization that elves walk secretly among them, and are bent on their destruction. Soon, each of the girls will be forced to choose her own path. Cassie must decide to which world she belongs and Elora must decide if she will fight for a warrior hell bent on keeping her from his side.

Two species, human and elf, stand on the precipice of war, united in one goal; shatter the dark elf king’s plan, and unite a divided race under the rule of the one true King.

My Review


Oh Quinn Loftis.....how I love thee?

What I liked: It's no secret that I'm the biggest fan of Quinn's Grey Wolves Series. I mean, I'm still in love with Decebel!!! HOWEVER, I am pretty sure I'm in love with Elfin series just as much. 

Trik and Cassie are two characters that stick in your mind long after you finish the book! I love, love Elves!! The twist and turns of Trik's and Cassie journey is page-turning!!

Now, Quinn didn't leave out the 'additional' characters. I enjoy when she pulls focus to (what some consider secondary characters) the friends and family of Trik and Cassies, especially Elora and CUSH!!! (swoon)

What I didn't like: There was nothing that I didn't like; I wish it was a tad longer. It was a faced pace book!!!!!

Rapture by Lauren Kate

Jacque's Review:

Rapture is the fourth and final book in the Fallen series by Lauren Kate. After three books of history and build up, we FINALLY get some action.

By the start of Rapture, Luce has a reasonably good understanding of the history of the fall along with her past lives.  Now that she is reunited with Daniel and the other angels, they are on a mission to stop Lucifer from erasing history and to break the curse.  They have nine days to collect three relics and to find the location of the fall, or their 7000+ years of history will be erased.  This is not as easy as it sounds.  They are not exactly sure what the relics are or where they are located.  They also have the Scale, Outcasts, and Elders to contend with.

This book was action packed and contained A LOT of surprises that I did not see coming at any point in this series.  The reason behind the fall, who can tip the scale, and the reason for the curse are three BIG questions I'm sure we have all had since the beginning of this series.  All of these questions are finally answered, but the answers are not what I expected.  The ending to the book was perfect and I felt like there was a real sense of closure to the series.

For those of you who have read my reviews of the first three book, you know that I liked, but did not love them.  I gave each of them three stars, but kept hoping for more from this series because it had so much potential.  Rapture was definitely worth the investment of my time.  I gave this book 4 stars and could finally appreciate the content from the previous three books.

The one thing that I think was needed for this book to reach the five star level was more to the love story.  Luce and Daniel's love has lasted thousands of years.  They always find each other, but we never get more than a G rated Disney film type of interaction between them.  While not every series can have feathers, I would have expected a little more than what we received by the end of this series.
