**if there are any goodreads librarians reading this review, there is a grammatical mistake in one of the titles of this author's books (see: dawkin's god [sic] dawkin's --> dawkins').

FIXED!



^this is exactly what i wanted to do on every single page i read. had such a button existed on the back of this book, it would have shorted out.

when i applied for this on the goodreaders i didn't know it was a work of christian fiction. i'm not into that scene at all, so reading it a) makes me feel lost an...more

The Aedyn Chronicles – Darkness Shall Fall was a story about Louisa, Peter and Julia. It is their quest to chase the shadows from Aedyn and return the rule of the Lord of Host. Trapped on the island of Khemia, surrounded by Gul’nog (monstrous creatures) while the volcano continues to erupt, they only know that a Talisman’s fabled power is their only hope. But why isn’t the talisman working ? In the end, they must decide who they can trust and find the strength to fight a battle they are sure to...more

Darkness Shall Fall is the third book in The Aedyn Chronicles Trilogy.

I found the story interesting enough to keep reading to the end, because I wanted to find out what happened to the characters. Unfortunately, I did not read the first two books in the trilogy, so some of the back story was not there for me coming into this book. The book was done well enough that I was able to follow the story, though.

The book is the story of Louisa, Peter and Julia and an adventure they are having in the wo...more

Darkness Shall Fall does have a lesson to be learned. First of all this is the second book and the conclusion to The Aedyn Chronicles. Peter, Julia, and Louisa is stranded on an island with an erupting volcano that is spreading evil from within the earth. As the Shadow grows stronger, the people of Aedyn are losing hope. Peter, Julia, and Louisa are expecting the Lord of Hosts to appear but nothing have happened when the two pieces of the tailman are made whole.

Louisa, who has been mean and cru...more

I received this book for free through First Reads on Good Reads.

First of all, I would like to note that I didn't read the first two books in this series. Darkness Shall Fall is the third book in The Aedyn Chronicles. With that being said, I was able to comprehend what was going on in the story.

I could have done without the illustrations in the book, though I understand that this series was made for a younger audience. The narration kind of put me off in some spots, but I pushed through.

Free book received from a Goodreads Giveaway

This book concludes the Aedyn Chronicles and it brings together everything which Peter, Louisa, and Julia have learned during their adventures. Peter must realize his mistake in putting his faith in the wrong person. Julia recovers the stolen talisman from the enemy's camp. Louisa becomes brave enough to accept her role as Healer and to lead the band on a daring move to destroy the Shadow once and for all. The books are a bit like Narnia, in that the h...more

I got this book through goodreads in a first reads giveaway. This is not a book I would read on a general purpose and I havent read the first two so i was a bit confused as to what was going on in a way.
Although the characters Louisa, Peter and Julia were well written and the story as I could tell was written for a much younger audience than myself. It was enjoyable and a good read the trio were trying to get rid of the shadow the volcano caused over Aedyn so they could get it back to its origna...more

Well written. It was a good change of pace for me, a different kind of read. It was a good change of pace that had full of life characters and great descriptions.
Sam Lonberg
Simple, but good. A modern take on Narnia, but you just can't touch Lewis.
Stephani
I thought this book was well written and I really enjoyed it. I didnt like volcanos before and I really dont like them now!!!!I would like to read more from this author. Not extremely easy to follow, since I do read alot of young adult, but I kept up and really enjoyed it...A different story line and I am definately going to let my Mother in Law borrow!!!!
Thank you to Goodreads Giveaways for the book!!!

I received this book thru the Goodreads First Read program. It is a good book for a younger teenager. Well written and the characters are believable and developed.

I have not read the first books in the series so kind of had to catch the drift on the fly. I enjoyed the book it was very different from what I have been reading lately.
