Burn The Night (2011) - Plot & Excerpts

As the epic climax of the Dark Days series approaches, Mira finds herself beset by enemies on every side: Her former mentor Jabari is out for her blood; Mira's father, the god of chaos, wants to use her to regain his position of power; the Daylight Coalition is targeting the supernatural inhabitants of Savannah; and the final battle in the war between the two factions of naturi is drawing closer, threatening to bring about the Great Awakening which would expose the existence of the supernatural to the human world. To pursue her vision of peaceful coexistence with humans and supernaturals alike, Cynnia hopes an unprecedented alliance between her naturi followers, Mira's nightwalkers and the lycans of the Savannah pack will give her an edge over Aurora's army - but will it be enough to grant her victory? Telling the story half from Mira's and half from Nyx's POV allows the reader to gain a better insight into the naturi characters as well as those of Mira's friends and allies. All loose ends are nicely wrapped up and the final battles definitely didn't disappoint. All in all, this was an intensely satisfying end to a great series. I was not expecting the happy ending. This is the first book in the series I haven't read, so I wasn't sure what to expect. I actually wish I could rate this a 4.5 because I've rated all the others five, but there were just...very many things I was still left wondering about and other things. I loved the different perspectives. Nyx was an interesting character to choose, but she also made the most sense (besides choosing Rowe). Nyx and Mira are kind of mirror characters. Both distinctly feared among their kind, Nyx for being the "Dark One" and Mira for being the Fire-Starter. Both were destined to fight Aurora. I was honestly thinking that Mira would get her shot, but she gets to take over when it comes to finally ridding herself of Nick. And yes, naturi sex. I love the romance scenes. Nyx and Rowe had their romantic little scene in the woods and of course, Mira and Danaus wipe the floor with their rough post-battle moment. It's hard for me to picture Rowe being so romantic after everything I've read about him, but hey, even the bad guys get the girl. Maybe I was hoping that Rowe would still fuck everybody over near the end. He's the lion in the sheep's pasture and I was waiting for him to snap. I even had my doubts about Nyx. Lots of interesting new developments for the last book too. Ryan becoming a vampire, for one. And the introduction of Adio. I figured Mira would go to Budapest after the destruction of Savannah. I was hoping to hear what had really happened to Micheal's body since it was such a point in a few of the books. But nothing there. And poor Barrett is left to defend his small pack. At least James survived. Jabrari didn't. Imagine that. Knew she'd kill the Ancient eventually. Overall, this is a fantastic series for urban fantasy readers. I loved her writing style, although I noticed the silky descriptions kind of faded after the first few books. I recommend this to fans of vampires.

What do You think about Burn The Night (2011)?

Loved it, but was very sad to see this series end. I'll miss Mira and Danaus.

A little gushy at the end, but a very nice finish to an entertaining series.
