The Elder Races Book 9.95: The Adversary by Thea Harrison

Elder Races Book 9.95

From NYT bestselling author Thea Harrison comes the explosive conclusion to The Unseen!

When Dragos and Pia move to the Other land of Rhyacia, they hope starting a new life will bring safety and freedom to their family, especially their young baby, Niall. And at first their new home seems perfect… but looks are deceiving.

Beneath Rhyacia’s idyllic façade an ancient, malevolent force lurks, waiting for the right opportunity to break free of its cage. When that opportunity comes, it strikes with devastating accuracy.

While Dragos has never backed down from a fight, he’s also never encountered an enemy like this one before. How can he fight a foe who doesn’t have a body? A foe who can invade and turn his own mind against him?

How can Dragos protect his family, when at any moment one of them may become the enemy?

As Dragos and Pia race against time to fight this unseen menace, they must also acknowledge a terrifying truth—when anyone can become the enemy, no one can be trusted.

An adversary who can trap the dragon poses a threat to everyone in Rhyacia, and that means no one is safe…

My Review: 5/5 Stars 

When I reviewed The Unseen, the previous book to this series, I had said it was part 1 of 4. Well that is no longer the case. This is the sequel and conclusion to The Unseen and resolves everything that had happened in the previous book. And for those who remember how that ended, I bet you agree with me that you are glad we get a conclusion and there are no more cliffhangers.

This book picks up exactly where the last one left off. Dragos is possessed and Pia gets a glimpse of Dragos telling her to do whatever it takes to free him before he is brought under again by this adversary. I loved diving back into this world. It has felt like it has been so long since I read anything from this series. And what I loved about The Unseen and now The Adversary, is that we see so many beloved characters from the entire series. It's that ultimate reunion and bringing in people who didn't get to visit last book because it is a serious all hands on deck situation. Because a possessed Dragos is a very dangerous Dragos. The book flips from Pia and Dragos's point of views. Pia is trying to keep it together and figure out who this adversary is while Dragos is fighting the spells that made him fall prey to being possessed in the first place. It's a great novella with the twists and turns, the amazing and hilarious characters, and action and romance that has desperate for more. This storyline I absolutely loved and again it was mostly because we got to see so many people together and an adventure with Pia and Dragos is always a crazy one. If you love the series and these characters, this one does not disappoint. 

And though the storyline is tied up the epilogue left me wanting more from this world. Which is never a surprise. It is such a good one and I feel like there is so much left to explore. I hope it isn't the end of the Elder Races world!

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
