Some call him a madman. Others call him a warlock. Both are true.

But if it wasn’t for Aon, I’d be dead. I was mere seconds away from dying by Edu’s hands when the King of Shadows appeared in a flash of lightning, saving me from Edu’s murderous plans.

Now I’m under his protection, living in his home. The more time I’m forced to spend with him, the more I start to piece together the puzzle of why Aon and Edu are at war.

Despite how everyone else seems to hate Aon, there’s something that pulls me towards him—like gravity, refusing to let go. My heart is telling me to believe what he says is true, yet there’s this prickle of warning in the back of my skull cautioning me against falling for the King of Shadows.

In the world of Under trusting the wrong person can get you killed. Only the strong survive out here, and that’s what I intend to do.

Survive.

Fantastic

29 March 2019

Format: Kindle Edition

As with B1 this series does remind me of both the Scholomance and ACOTAR with slow burn tense romance, elements of horror and fantasy.
I have devoured both books in 2 days and I need more!

This really is in a league all of its own.

28 March 2019 - Published on Amazon.com

Format: Kindle Edition

This was all sorts of fabulous and I was absolutely salivating to get started here.
I had a couple to read on my list before this and it nearly killed me to wait but the anticipation definitely lived up to my internal hype and I'm all sorts of digging "King of Shadows" and would go as far as to say this is my stand out series so far this year.
This begins exactly where we left things in the previous instalment and Lydia still seemed very fearful and wary where it concerned Aon and his unknown intentions towards her, while this was an understandable reaction from her I did want her to come to the realisation faster that despite his violent actions in her dreams he had never harmed her in any real physical sense.
Not only that he also assured her repeatedly that he has no plans to do so considering her fragile human state.
So Aon, (that is who I am concentrating on in this review as Lydia got the stage last time around) well he does so love his mind games and employs this strange quirk of his constantly around Lydia. Sometimes throwing all etiquettes and rules to proper social behaviour and norms out of the door.
Aon certainly dances to his own piper and does seem mostly unaware of his unusual and improper conduct around others.
There is at times an almost devilishly wicked but almost fun vibe to Aon's encounters with Lydia its almost like he finds her a breath of fresh air in his long mundane existence, an anomaly, if you will, one he is compelled to analyse and dissect (metaphorically of course)
"King Of Shadows" was very slow burn in nature and also wasn't that graphic, when it comes to the encounters between Lydia and Aon a lot is left to your own imagination this was not an issue for me at all: the chemistry here was still through the actual roof and pulsated off the page I could still feel the carnal tension and developing emotion between Lydia and Aon in actual spades.
I mentioned previously how much I adored Lydia now Aon also gets the seal of approval from moi.
He is just so wickedly delicious with a large hint of bad that just left me panting in his wake, Lyd never really stood a chance here.
I also should mention that the old world prose and descriptions of this fantastical new world were so vivid and real that I could actually picture Under in my mind.
I felt like I had been dropped into an episode of The Twilight Zone or even a very macabre alternate wonderland.
So let us talk about Aon's supposed madness: well this to me came across as a somewhat forgetful and eccentric nature more than likely brought about by his advanced age rather than any insanity or psychosis itself, I actually found this an extremely endearing and somewhat charming quality to him: In fact, there were even times that Aon reminded me very much of a gorgeous and delicious Mad Hatter.
So, this has some of the best world building ive experienced to date, it was brilliant and just ever so entertaining indeed.
The old world prose mixed with a huge dash of steampunk just worked for me on every level.
The writing itself is also second to none and I devoured every single word, this really was in a league all of its own and that ending, my god I need that next book like right now people.
This series so far has been amazing and I'm sorry for my waffling on but I am just so in love here.
Think its a tad obvious by now that this one definitely gets my stamp of approval.
So before I toddle off On a side note, I really did appreciate that sneak peek of book three very much appreciated.
I voluntary reviewed a copy of "King Of Shadows (The Masks of Under #2)"

Slower paced than book 1...HUGE emotional cliffhanger ending ....

1 April 2019 - Published on Amazon.com

Format: Kindle Edition

Well, naturally, this book picks up where Book 1 ended with a cliffhanger, folks. Again, since this is not an ARC, I simply don’t have the time, thanks to a full literary dance card of ARCs requiring my attention, to dissect and really analysis this second on-going sequel of the Masks of Under series. Just know this one unfolded at a much slower pace, with the heroine getting to know up close and personal the one king everyone else seemed to completely misunderstand. Not that he was as harmless or innocent as a sweet cuddly puppy, people. No, this guy had a dark alpha male side to him, that’s for certain. I was just pleased as punch we were shown a side that gave this creature a heart that was motivated by remorse and redemption. Ultimately, too, a heart that beat with love for this leading lady.

The clear shocker was the cliffhanger ending, even though you were given a big clue what was about to go down. Better brace you anyway, because it was heartbreaking. Good goggly goop, I can’t wait to see what arises out of that HUGE cliffhanger twist. I think a certain someone is going to show them all how the game is truly meant to be played. Yeah, their world is about to be rocked and likely saved at the same time. Here's to hoping we see the tables turned in a very big way.

Title: King of Shadows, Series: Masks of Under (Book 2), Pages: 225, author: Kathryn Ann Kingsley, not a stand-alone, must read books in order, much slower paced than the first book, a few very steamy scenes, HUGE cliffhanger ending, complex cast of characters.

Book 1 - King of Flames (Part 1)
Book 2 - King of Shadows (Part 2)

Jennifer Pierson: The Power of Three Readers

#DYINGINSIDEFORMORE

Format: Kindle Edition

I'm going to start out saying that King of Shadows is the second book in The Masks of Under series, so YOU MUST READ King of Flames (Book 1) FIRST since it's a continuation. If you don't, you will be super confused. King of Shadows picks right back up where Book 1 left off, where Aon is rescuing Lydia, or he is really? See, he's a complicated hero, if that's what we want to call him, and I'm not saying crap one way or another because I don't want to give anything away, but he definitely gives the name tortured soul new meaning. They have serious chemistry, but they don't act on it quickly, because again, is he really a hero in this story? Or a villain?! I will say that he's wickedly yummy on one hand, while on the other.....well never mind, you'll have to make up your own mind. There's a cast of secondaries that I can't decide what category they fall into, the good, the bad, or the oh so ugly, which means that I have a million questions still which are making me crazy. Now, this is where my insanity comes in at, the ending. Yep, that ending was so much worse than the first cliffy, and now I'm afraid that Kathryn Ann Kingsley is becoming a love/hate relationship for me since she clearly wants to KILL ME DEAD! Like seriously, WHY OH WHY?! I'm dying inside now, because I have an inkling of what's ahead, but not how it's going to go down if that makes sense?! Anyway, I NEED MORE, and you do too, so check out this oh so addictive serious that I HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO ALL!
