Darkest Mercy by Melissa Marr
February 22, 2011
-Recently, I read Wicked Lovely by Melissa Marr and her graphic novel Santuary. These books were my introduction to a fantastic author and a enthralling series. I can't wait to read the rest of the Wicked Lovely books and check out the new one.
-Isn't this an incredible cover? I love that flower, the girl in the background, and the little sparkles.
Summary
The Summer King is missing; the Dark Court is bleeding; and a stranger walks the streets of Huntsdale, his presence signifying the deaths of powerful fey.
Aislinn tends to the Summer Court, searching for her absent king and yearning for Seth. Torn between his new queen and his old love, Keenan works from afar to strengthen his court against the coming war. Donia longs for fiery passion even as she coolly readies the Winter Court for battle. And Seth, sworn brother of the Dark King and heir to the High Queen, is about to make a mistake that could cost his life.
Love, despair, and betrayal ignite the Faery Courts, and in the final conflict, some will win . . . and some will lose everything.
The thrilling conclusion to Melissa Marr's New York Times bestselling Wicked Lovely series will leave readers breathless.
Ohhhh great choice Alison! I've only read the first book in this series but I really enjoyed it and can't wait to get caught up in time for this one:)

I've heard so many awesome things about this series - I really need to read it! Great pick! Gorgeous cover!
ReplyDeleteI've just started my first Fairy series and I love it. I haven't read Melissa Marr, but I've definitely got to check her out. Nice choice!
ReplyDeleteSince I'm obviously addicted to faeries because of The Iron Fey series, I'm gonna give this series another try. I recently bought both books on a book sale and I can't wait to read them! Great pick!
ReplyDeleteClick here if you want to check my WoW picks for the week.
I have heard great things about this series but have yet to read the first books.
ReplyDeleteI love the look and sound of this one. The cover is somehow modern and quite gothic at the same time, don't you think?
ReplyDeleteGreat pick. I can't wait to read this. And Seth and Ashlinn better get their happily ever after :)
ReplyDeleteI read Wicked Lovely and found it terribly dark. Did you enjoy the other books Alison? Would you recommend I give the series another try?
ReplyDeleteHaha! That's great! I love what I do. Just find it hard to find time to read some days. I have been reading Once a Witch by Carolyn MacCollough for a week now. I read two pages then I fall asleep! Don't know whether it's the book or all the pressure I'm under at the moment.
ReplyDeleteI've got high expectations for this book. I thought the last one, "Radiant Darkness" was a let down and was disappointed. I can't wait to see how it all ends!
ReplyDeleteI've read the first one, but haven't read the rest in this series. This book sounds good though! The cover is lovely.
