Narration Supposing Books Shadow Heir (Dark Swan #4)
#1 New York Times bestselling author Richelle Mead returns to the Otherworld, a mystic land inextricably linked to our own--and balanced precariously on one woman's desperate courage...Shaman-for-hire Eugenie Markham strives to keep the mortal realm safe from trespassing entities. But as the Thorn Land's prophecy-haunted queen, there's no refuge for her and her soon-to-be-born-children when a mysterious blight begins to devastate the Otherworld...
The spell-driven source of the blight isn't the only challenge to Eugenie's instincts. Fairy king Dorian is sacrificing everything to help, but Eugenie can't trust the synergy drawing them back together. The uneasy truce between her and her shape shifter ex-lover Kiyo is endangered by secrets he can't--or won't--reveal. And as a formidable force rises to also threaten the human world, Eugenie must use her own cursed fate as a weapon--and risk the ultimate sacrifice...

I just re-red the series...I have forgotten a lot...and somehow in my memories Kiyo was dead...i remembered so clearly that he died! WTH? I guess I
I was careful not to read the reviews for this beyond their first lines because I knew a lot of readers were disappointed by its resolution and ending. But all the way through I was anticipating the BIG LET DOWN. Right up to 95 %, I thought I had escaped it, but there it was, right at the end to sucker punch me.I ended up disliking the main character quite a bit. The author presented an admittedly flawed character who I liked anyway. She was involved in a very frustrating love triangle
EDIT (11/4/2017): Wow, the ending made me angrier than the first time around. Dorian deserved so much more!I loved the book/series. But the ending killed me. This book came out in 2011, and I have no hope that Richelle Mead will return to this series which kills me. The beginning was kind of slow (view spoiler)[ I know; she was pregnant. But the book could start later in the pregnancy. (hide spoiler)]. I still hate Kiyo and that Maiwenn monster! I like how Richelle found the solution for Storm
I'm absolutely disappointed with this book. I feel sort of betrayed that Richelle would choose to end it they way that she did. An ending like that would be enough for me to drop an author altogether and the only reason I won't is because I'm way too invested in her VA world to drop Bloodlines.This is strike two against Richelle's end of series. The way LS ended was sort of disappointing but there was the excuse that things would be explained later in the spin-off. I don't fail to see the irony
It's all about Dorian for me. For him, I give this three stars. Also liked the faerie aspects. Otherwise, this didn't ring my bell. Full review will be published in the January 2012 Affaire de Coeur issue. http://affairedecoeur.com.
Hmmmmmmm
