Darkness Shall Fall

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 world of Aedyn, having left their "melded" family back on Earth. A volcano has erupted and a shadow covers the world of Aedyn. Their mission is to overcome the shadow and restore Aedyn to the rule of the Lord of Hosts.
It was entertaining enough to keep me going. There were two spots in the book where the author leaves the third person telling and goes into a short (2 or 3 paragraphs) second person telling, in something of a preachy style, which was jarring to the flow of the narrative.
The change to the kids' family when they arrive back home is dramatic but not entirely convincing in the way that it happens. But a good ending to the tale.
This was a Goodread/First Reads book.
