Aww yeah! Etherya’s Earth round 2. We got to see how they were made, not we get to….. actually, let’s never think about that again. As the time skips were going on in the series, I was never quite sure how to feel about them. A great many years passed and it was kinda difficult to wrap my mind around so many years passing over the course of the series, I had to remind myself the world of immortals would move at a much quicker rate than we do. Unless they’re getting romantically involved, then it pretty much moves at Mach speed.
The upside is we get to see a new generation of Vampires, Slayers, and whatever their hybrid children are called. It’s nice to see how the characters have all grown and changed over the decades. Even though their stories were told in a previous novel, I never get tired of seeing snippets of their romances.
Calinda and Brecken have the best romance in the series. I don’t mean chemistry-wise, that will always belong to Heden and Sofia. What I mean is dayum, girl! these two have the best romance scenes in the series so far. And they’re insatiable. Then we get teased with a bathtub scene at the end, which can only be found on the official website. Madness, I say! I think we as fans of Etherya’s Earth should band together and request an extension of this couple’s story, as it is far too short.
I was a bit apprehensive about what’s his name taking over as narrator. Devon Wilcox really brought Etherya’s Earth to life for me across 6 stories. I was impressed with his performance. he did a fantastic job of bringing Etherya’s Earth to life and capturing the essence of all of the characters and their personalities. It can be jarring to switch narrators in the middle of a series but he did an excellent job of keeping things on brand.
