Dark Soul

By: Tenaya Jayne

Narrated by: Khristine Hvam

Thief. Murderess. Sacrificial messenger. Netriet has faced death many times, but she never consented to the transformation she endured the last time her life was pulled back from the edge of death. She's compelled to live a solitary life for fear the shadow inside her will terrify others. Lonely, Netriet longs for acceptance and friendship. Joining up with the Fair, a haven for misfits, she believes she's found home and love with Merick. The ghosts of Merick's past haunt him. Helplessly attracted to Netriet, he's sworn to help her destroy the shadow within, but losing his heart to her cripples him with fear. Mistakes and misunderstanding push her away, and Merick's forced to watch her flee into the arms of another man.

Torn between two men, Netriet's true nature is drawn to one, while the shadow yearns for the other. At war with the darkness, Netriet must choose, or let the shadow swallow her completely. The fate of Regia's new republic hangs in the balance as a new enemy arises, backed by a group of violent insurgents bent on destroying everything Forest has worked for. Desperate for intelligence about the terrorist group, Forest learns the leader wants not only to claim the throne, but also her life.

if the author was fishing, she just set the hook.

This the best written in the series thus far. You really begin to feel for the characters, not just observe them.

Satisfying wrap up for a few characters

Tenaya comes through again with book four in her Regia saga. Her heroine Forest takes a back seat in this one; this story is all about wrapping up the arc of someone who started out as a side character to be pitied, but soon became one of the most interesting of all, in my opinion. In fact, now that she has been gifted what I would definitely call an upgrade, I would hate it if we never see this character again! I think book 3, Verdant, is my favorite, but this could be the most satisfying of the series so far. On to book 5!

love love love this series this book however....

this book tells netrices story and start on the obvious set up for the next book however i feel that the stuff that happens with forest went no where

Loved it!

Forest is just a wonderful character in these books, I just couldn't put them down!

Great Fantasy Series

I have really enjoyed the books leading to this one and may have overlooked the one about Shi but I found it important to the series. Many characters and never a dull moment. It's seems as though Forest has grown a lot in the fourth book although not much time has passed. 5 stars. Narrators make audiobooks better. Enjoy.
