The Drifting by L. Filloon Book Review

The Drifting (The Velesi Trilogy, #2)The Drifting by L. Filloon

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


“Welcome to Velesi, Princess.”

It is Lily’s first day in the Velesi realm but not as the princess she was made to believe, but as a captive to a strange Lithi elf name Ziri – Tharin and Tolan’s mysterious brother. Who is he and why has he taken her? Or is he only a pawn in someone’s deadly game of chess?

Tharin and Lily discover a prophecy involving the Unnamed Sidhe and a way back to Eirrell, the birthplace of the Thirteen Clans. However, before they can get to the doorway to Eirrell, Lily must first make it to the Day of the Seating to take her rightful place on the throne of the Willow Clan.

Tharin must keep Lily safe until the Day of the Seating even if it means keeping the beautiful Sidhe warrior Kalis close to him. Will he be able to protect his naïve, but stubborn bride-to-be not just from Harlu but from his warrior mistress? He once again turns to his brother and cousin, to only find that Tolan has his own problems with his feisty Julia.

Thank goodness for the future king of Velesi that he has Phoris, Alorn and Mellis to cover his royal back.

Welcome to Velesi, a realm existing alongside our own with their own rules, their own players and their own way of life.

My Review:
I absolutely loved this book! I could hardly put it down and I can hardly wait for the next book! The relationship between Lily and Tharin is so addicting. I was constantly on the edge of my seat wondering what would happen between Lily and Tharin. Would they ever tell each other how they really feel? Will they stop butting heads long enough to love each other?

I fell more in love with all the characters from the first book especially Mellis and Ziri. They both brought much needed lightheartedness and humor to the story.

The imagery is spellbinding. I was easily transported to Velesi and the character development was done to perfection, I felt everything they felt. This is a definite must read :)
