Found in Night

Dragori Series, Book 2

De: Ben Alderson

Narrado por: Shaun Grindell

Dragon shifters. Undead. Revenge.

Life has not been the same since the attack on the ship. Affected by the Druid's power, something dark lurks within Hadrian Vulmar, threatening the existence of those around him. Following a lead, Zacriah and Nyah head into the forest on an expedition to cure him.

When they are ambushed by the living dead - bodies controlled by shadow - covered in the Druid marks, they know the Druid did not perish in the sea as they first thought. The Druid is back, and with his return comes the threat of attack.

The three known Dragori are sent on a dangerous quest to stop this dark magick before Hadrian gives into his new power and the shadow beings end more innocent lives.

Pathetic good guys theme was over done

all books follow the same good guys are weak bad guys strong until the end, then good guys win. but this was over the top pathetic how weak the good guys were. I wanted to enjoy this but I just couldn't.

LOVE

Found Ben on social media and quickly bought the first book. I bought the 2nd one right after finishing the first. I am in love with this series already!

Found in Night

Found in Night raises the stakes for the Dragori series by sending Zacriah and Nyah into a forest expedition to save Hadrian, who’s haunted by druidic magic and a corrosive darkness within. Alderson’s tension ramps up effectively—with undead shadow-beings, creeping dread, and the return of the Druid, the danger feels real and urgent. Hadrian’s internal struggle could have added more emotional weight as we see it threaten his relationships but not from his perspective which create more questions than intrigue. Still, it’s a rich and haunted sequel that deepens character bonds and sets up a dire final act.

Very engaging and detailed story… however a little predictable

I do love this book series so far. The characters are well written and thought out, the emotions are written well. I enjoy how Zacriah is Unlikable in some aspects due to very real human… elvish? Flaws. It’s predictable though, maybe it’s because I’ve read and listened to many books but you could see the “twist” as soon as the characters involved in it were put into play near the beginning of the story. Though it was a good twist predictable or not

Ehh

The first book was promising enough, but this one barely treads water. The romantic leads arbitrarily avoid consummating their relationship, and no meaningful developments there. The adventure story doesn't go anywhere exciting. It's a basic, extended cat and mouse game where it feels like the tables are turned back and forth arbitrarily at the author's whim. When the heroes win out, it's generally due to luck or outside forces rather than their own cleverness. It was hard to remain invested.
