Onderdeel van de reeks(en)Aisling (2)
Aisling Trilogy: Book Two To reveal the intricate machinations threatening them, two men must learn to trust each other. But how can they, when their hearts and mindsâtheir realitiesâare subject to manipulation? When he set out to escort the prisoner Wilfred Calder back to Putnam, Constable Dallin Brayden didn't anticipate the political betrayal and malicious magic threatening their lives at every turn. To his surprise, he slips into the role of protectorâand it's more than duty compelling him to ensure Wil's safety as they're haunted by strange dreams. But does Wil dare put himself in the hands of a man he believes wants him dead? Wil's past weighs heavily on him, tainting his perceptions as he struggles his way through a tangle of lies. With both will and magic as his weapons, he fights desperately for survivalâand his soul. For the Aisling is coveted by more than the Guild and the Brethren; ancient gods and soul-eating spirits also want what lives within him. His only chance might be Dallin and his goddess, the Mother, who Wil has been taught to despise above all others. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

Said that, where, if I remember well, in the first book there was really no romantic relationship between Wil and Dallin, or at least nothing that was open and fully acknowledge, in book two they shared some intimate moments that make it clear they are heading towards a love story.
As always, I’m concentrating on the “romance” more than on other aspects of the story, but truth be told, this is really a Coming of Age story, with Wil doing his own travel, from being a boy to being a man, but also from being barely aware of his power and destiny to little by little taking his own destiny in hand (and right in the last sentence I think there is a good metaphor on this point). Also Dallin is doing his own travel, but it’s more a self-discovery travel, all inside himself: Will is moving from one step to another, Dallin is more trying to understand the step in which he is already on.
The Aisling series is a quite complex world building, but it’s not heavy setting; the author is playing more with the characters and their evolution than the world around them. It’s not a big bum bang plot, and that is probably why, even if mainly aimed to a YA target, also an adult reader will appreciate it, actually I think they will find something that a teenager will probably not focus on. This novel is like some of those eye trick paintings that, according to who is looking at them, will communicate different perceptions.
