Since the night of her seventeenth birthday, Skye has been torn between two opposites: Light and Dark, the Order and the Rebellion, Devin and Asher.
But her decision shocked both sides—because she chose neither.
With the help of her friends, Skye forges her own path, setting out to gather an uprising of Rogues. The treacherous and elusive half-angels may be the key to maintaining the balance of fate and free will. But completing the mission her parents left unfinished is more difficult—and dangerous—than she could have imagined. And doing so comes at a cost: Her greatest love may now be a lethal enemy. Because it’s not just the Order that sees her as a threat who must be eliminated. The Rebellion does, too.
And both sides will do whatever it takes to win.
Dark days lie ahead, and if Skye is to survive, she’ll need to rely on her extraordinary powers and the strength of her will. Because she has a future—and a love—that’s worth fighting for.
The sweeping, darkly romantic story that began with A Beautiful Dark and gathered intensity in A Fractured Light comes to a thrilling conclusion in A Radiant Sky.
Why I'm Wishing...
I'm really curious to see how this trilogy will end. I loved book one, but pretty much hated book two...Ugh, book 2 just pissed me off, but I still would like to know how the series will end. I hate to start a series and not finish it. BTW, I think the covers are all pretty!
Other Books in this Series
I haven't read any books of this series (so I'm avoiding the blurb), but I've heard pretty much what you said. Book one was good and book two fell a little. I think I'll wait for the verdict on book 3 before I decide to pick it up or not :)
ReplyDeleteI love how reverse this is. Usually it's the nerds getting a make over and becoming pretty and popular. I love how it's otherwise! Great pick!

My WOW post
I honestly didn't really like book 1 so I never read book 2. I'm glad to hear she chose neither side because to be honest both guy and both sides sounded like bad choices. Thanks for stopping by!
ReplyDeleteHmm, sounds like opinions are really mixed on this series! Maybe if you end up liking #3, I'll check it out!
