Daughter of Darkness

De: Terry Brooks

Narrado por: Jeremy Carlisle Parker

The thrilling second novel of an all-new fantasy series from the legendary author behind the Shannara saga, about a human girl adapting to her place in a magical world she’s only recently discovered

It’s been two years since Auris escaped from the sinister Goblin prison and learned of her heritage as one of the Fae. She is now happily partnered with her Fae lover, Harrow, and deeply bonded with her new family. All seems to be going perfectly—until, surprisingly, the Goblin attacks begin again. Someone, it seems, has not forgotten that Auris exists and seems determined to retrieve her . . . but who? And why?

As Auris begins to dig deeper into the mystery, old friends and new enemies appear, and she starts to realize that her still-shrouded past must contain the answers she needs. But even Auris does not suspect how far down the rabbit hole she is about to go, until Harrow is taken and an impossible ransom demand is issued. With two new companions at her side, Auris must attempt to unlock the remaining secrets of her past. For if she cannot, she will never see Harrow alive again.

Reseñas de la Crítica

Praise for Child of Light

“An enticing new mystery . . . Auris is a tough but enchanting protagonist, and the page-turning mystery of her magical origins forms the novel’s heart. [Terry] Brooks’s fans will be thrilled to have a new series to savor.”—Publishers Weekly

“Child of Light is enchantingly feral. Precise in his prose, clever in his worldbuilding, Brooks stretches new muscles to explore a young woman’s quest for identity. The pace is rapid as a river, but this one twists hard and runs deep.”—Pierce Brown, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Red Rising Saga

“A fresh world, a new voice, but the same high quality Brooks always delivers . . . You’ll be glad you joined the expedition.”—Robin Hobb, New York Times bestselling author of Assassin’s Fate

“With a unique setting that is a heady dystopic blend of mysticism and the future, Child of Light is an otherworldly adventure from the fertile mind of one of the most beloved storytellers of our generation.”—Wesley Chu, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The War Arts Saga

“With Child of Light, Terry Brooks continues to enchant both longtime fans and generations of new readers.”—Peter V. Brett, New York Times bestselling author of The Desert Prince

“Terry Brooks unleashed is a wonderful thing. In Child of Light, he’s teasing us with a world that is both fairy tale and deadly serious, and keeping us off-guard the entire time, unsure of how to take . . . anyone and anything. It’s not really a ‘mystery,’ but it is, and even with the startling reveals, there’s so much left to explore and discover. I want to go back to Viridian Deep and I know that I will.”—R. A. Salvatore, author of The Legend of Drizzt series and the DemonWars Saga

Terry is the pillar of Fantasy

This was just another wonderful story that Terry has shared with us and so beautifully put together. I’ve been a huge fan of all his novels and I thank him for this gift of a wonderful story with a strong female character that I can share with my daughters when they reach an appropriate age. I purchased the audio book versions of daughter of light and darkness and enjoyed it on the long car rides to and from work. I also have the hardcover (being a die hard fan) that hopefully one day I can get lucky enough to get signed by him. I enjoyed all the elements of this story I want to keep this review spoiler free and I will say he never stops using his wicked ability to pull at your heart strings. All the supporting characters draw you in and you want more from them and you always end up getting attached. Sadly there will always be a weapons master that you will always curse having to see their story end. Terry is a master at describing the scene around, the internal conflicts of a character and even the way the look to others with such vivid account that you feel drawn into it and are along for the full journey. I’m selfish in the fact that I wish he can put out another 100 plus novels in the little time we on this planet and I can only wish that my own writing can be as creative and carved into the genre as he has. Worth every penny! Very highly recommended to all my friends and all avid readers of fantasy!

This is a great addition to terry’s other books. I have read most of his other work and while was different than what I am used to from him. It did not disappoint.

Another winner!

If you like Terry’s writing, you will love this! It takes you on a journey that you would never have gone if in physical form. I love the way Terry writes and he such a down to earth writer. I bought a full set of his books and his daughter in law was the cashier at the bookstore. We explained the set was for our son’s birthday present. She took the set home and Terry wrote a dedication in every book! Such a kind man!

I have been reading and listening to the works of Terry Brooks since the early 80’s. I have read other authors but always gravitate back to Terry. He satisfies my need for Fiction Fantasy. The stories are so enthralling.
