The Scrying (The Scrying Trilogy #1) by Jaci Miller - GBR - Starting October 1st 2019

[Sarah Elizabeth]

The compelling debut of author Jaci Miller and the first in an exciting fantasy trilogy, The Scrying is a dark, romantic tale of perseverance and self-sacrifice where one destiny is defined by both a forgotten past and the fate of the future.

A modern witch, an ancient warrior, two worlds about to collide.

Dane Watts-Callan’s destiny has always been complicated, she has been a witch living in a modern world since her “awakening” at thirteen. Now on her thirty-first birthday an ancient family legacy is revealed—a birthright written in a time before man, in a world silenced by a haunting past. Searching for answers she journeys to the magical realm of her ancestors where she is confronted by the only person that still exists on this archaic world.

Rafe Morrighann, is an ancient immortal warrior whose destiny has left him waiting for billions of centuries for the prophecy to pass. When Dane appears in his world he knows the evil that decimated the ancient realms is about to rise again. As they work together to uncover the secrets of the prophecy and unlock the power of the ancient magic, he realizes that his destiny is intertwined with her own, igniting an attraction that neither can control nor escape.

Dane must rely on the power and knowledge of her birthright, before the evil of the past is unleashed and the modern world is plunged into an ancient hell, for a dark destiny is rising.

[Mummy's Naughty Corner]

I'm up for this one, again I know nothing apart from whats above.

[Julianne]

Chapter 1. The opening really pulled me in! I really like the authors style so far. So I might finish this one really quickly!

[Julianne]

Chapter 10 (view spoiler)[ I'm into this prophecy lore a lot! I'm really excited to see what direction this book takes. Dane seems absolutely terrified of these runes! (hide spoiler)]

[Julianne]

Chapter 17 (view spoiler)[ hmm going to another world/realm! Interesting.

My thoughts now. Six friends. Six races. How obvious (to me). But then what's the deal with the dark witch? (hide spoiler)]

[Julianne]

Chapter 25 (view spoiler)[ oh okay. Full blown sex scene. Wasnt expecting this book to go that way considering the first half of it was NOT at all like that?

But it was super obvious it was going to happen once Rafe was introduced. It was all pulse racing and heavy breathing since Dane met him (hide spoiler)]

[Julianne]

Finished (view spoiler)[ well I was partially right! At least Gabby is part of the six. And she's a celestial/angel. But there wasn't a whole lot going on in this. It was really a lot of set up, and I'm not sure how it will play out in the next book! (hide spoiler)]

82 %

(view spoiler)[ We are learning about her powers. The ones like her and what her future holds. Rafe and Dane...well everyone needs someone even an immortal. (hide spoiler)]

[Mummy's Naughty Corner]

Finished

(view spoiler)[ well I'm not sure how to feel. I really enjoyed the beginning, the middle was okay and I got bored at the end. It seems this whole book was more about Dane then an actually story line all we know is that there are 6 specials and they will come into their power in about 2 months then either the earth will go to hell or Dane will save the world.
