Sundered The Return of the Elves Book 2 eBook Bethany Adams

While I loved the first one in large part because of the development of some excellent characters, this second installment is far less intimate and charming. It's much more about the building of the larger world now, along with creating the major conflicts, and so steps outside what I thought was the author's biggest strength: the conception and development of complex and suitably noble (or villainous) characters to people a beautiful fantasy earth. I really enjoy Ms. Adams' writing, and for a second effort, this is a good one. I suspect she will improve and grow with time, and I intend to follow her writing, likely for a very long while.

Sundered The Return of the Elves Book 2 eBook Bethany Adams Reviews

This book has more of a serial feel to it than the first, but it’s still a satisfying journey. Characters are more deeply fleshed out, including some who are revealed as being not quite what they seem. The plot of this second book isn’t as self-contained as the first, which is understandable. But the author doesn’t end on a cliffhanger, instead relying on the quality of her work to draw the reader into the next purchase. I’ve already purchased the third, which oddly is a novella. Perhaps she’s taking a side trip before continuing the journey. Anyway, this one too is highly recommended.
Characters are developed more fully and we meet some new ones. Ms Adams does a great job of continuing world building and I can imagine Moranaia in all of its forest majesty. Her elves and other fae are more complex than drawn in some other fantasy series and each have their foibles and even insecurities, be they hero or villain. A little passion and romance sprinkled in to keep things interesting as well, generally tastefully done. Look forward to the ongoing series. There is a lot of potential in this world she has created for exploring other fae races, as well as factions within the elves. Great reading, editing is sharp and not a lot of typos or grammar errors to distract from the great story. Glad I found this series!
The second of the series introduces a new cast with some familiar faces, which was a bit difficult for me at first. I really liked the lead characters of Soulbound and had to adjust to them being supporting characters. But Adams knows what she is doing. By the middle of the book, I liked the new leads a much as, if not more, than those I grew attached to previously.

The storyline was original and creative, which can be difficult in an episodic series. Again, Adams encourages people to be a bit nicer and more open with her storytelling. Although this novel includes soul bonds and their effect on the elves, this story focuses more on individual value and the dangers of measuring everyone with the same criteria. She leaves you encouraged and more encouraging.

Again, a sweet and entertaining story that resounds seemingly without intending to.
I liked this more as it went along, but I did like the first book a lot better. Its a series I enjoy and other than the fact that we likely have at least three characters who might drive the next books (Lial, Selia and Ralan, I'd guess), I hope there is more POV separation. I appreciated we got back to Kai and Aryln, but it was kind of abrupt because we were just observing them from Lyr's perspective (where I did keep expecting more interest or impressiveness with his daughter and her aptitude as opposed to just simply regret everytime he looked at her).
Awesome world building, intricate plot and wonderful characters . Cannot wait for book three!!!!
I absolutely enjoy all the connections between the different fae, elves, Nordic and Celtic. The magic is easily understood, the editing is first rate. High fantasy at its best. Very enjoyable and refreshingly different than so many books in this genre.
This is the second book in this series, and like the first, a joy to read. The characters are interesting, the plot moves along nicely, and the writing/editing well-done. You don't have to read the first book in this series to enjoy this one, but doing so, will give you a better sense of these characters. Also, this is a complete book. Unlike some authors, Ms. Adams doesn't leave you hanging at the end, wondering "What the heck just happened here?" Because she does tie the different plot points together and give you a complete read, you can read this book and not feel like you were scammed. Looking forward to the next book in this series.
I really liked the first book in this series but this one took a disappointing turn. The story overall was interesting with lots of potential but there was way too much focus on Lyr and Meli's relationship. Lyr was presented in the first book as a noble lord and in this book you mostly hear about his desire for Meli. I had hoped to continue the story of Aryln but she was almost a minor character in this book. The relationships (soulbonded) were too rushed and unbelievable. Also, I wish there had been a little more character building. Unfortunately, I did not like it enough to continue the series.
While I loved the first one in large part because of the development of some excellent characters, this second installment is far less intimate and charming. It's much more about the building of the larger world now, along with creating the major conflicts, and so steps outside what I thought was the author's biggest strength the conception and development of complex and suitably noble (or villainous) characters to people a beautiful fantasy earth.
