Description:
In the fifth book of this bestselling paranormal series, Evalle faces her greatest nightmare – losing Storm – and without his help the Beladors will fall to an enemy they have fought for centuries.

With Treoir Island in shambles after a Medb attack that left the survival of the missing Belador warrior queen in question and Belador powers compromised, the Beladors have one hope for their queen’s return and their own future: Evalle Kincaid, whose recent transformation has turned her into an even more formidable warrior. First Evalle has to locate Storm, the Skinwalker she’s bonded with who she believes can find the Belador queen, but Storm stalks the witch doctor threatening Evalle’s life. The hunter becomes the hunted, and Evalle must face her greatest nightmare to save Storm and the Beladors-or watch the future of mankind fall to deadly preternatural predators.

 

 

Review:

Demon Storm by Dianna Love is the 5th book in her Belador series. I have said this numerous times that I love this series, and the wonderful characters, especially our heroine, Evalle. In Demon Storm, Dianna assumes full control of writing this series, and I am thrilled to say…this is as good and exciting as the first 4 books. As I have noted before, Evalle is one of the best kickass heroines, and her romance with Storm, just keeps getting better and better.

But in Demon Storm, Evalle and Storm are not together until more than half way through the book. When Rise of the Gryphon ended, Storm went searching for the witch, who was threatening Evalle’s life, and he gets himself trapped in something beyond his control.

Back in Treior, Evalle having just helped win the latest battle, was trying to help find Brina and Lanna. The goddess Macha is still the same pain, but she needs Evalle to find Brina, as the Beladors are slowly losing their power without her. Tzader remains behind to keep an eye on Brina’s hologram that is slowly disintegrating. It is up to Evalle to find Storm, who is their best tracker to help find Brina, before it’s too late.

Without giving spoilers, what follows is a wonderfully exciting adventure that will require Evalle to use all her powers, and contacts, even those she doesn’t trust, to find and rescue Storm. Evalle will put her life on the line, as she enters the Demon world. Can she survive? Will she be able to save Storm, and if she does, at what cost?

In between her search for Storm, we get a glimpse of Brina, and what is happening to her. Tzader and his torment at possibly losing his love, Brina. Medb are still the villains, with a new, but old powerful leadership. But the focus of this story is between Evalle and Storm. There were so many moments that seemed hopeless, that they would be doomed, not to mention us fearing for Evalle’s life. Will Evalle’s love for Storm be enough to save him?

Feenix, our cute lovable gargoyle, is still one of my favorite characters, and I wish we could have more of him with Evalle. As I have also said before, Dianna always has wonderful characters in her stories. There are so many of them that we care about, and even the villains are worth hating. 🙂

This was such an exciting adventure, with non-stop tense action, filled with twists, betrayals, danger, and a beautiful sensual romance. As always with Dianna Love, I was on the edge of my seat, unable to pull myself away. I had to know what was happening next. I loved Demon Storm; love Evalle; love the romance between Evalle and Storm; and I absolutely love the Belador series. Demon Storm was a fantastic story, and this series just keeps on getting better. If you have not read this series, once again, what are you waiting for?
