The Delight
This is the book that is probably the biggest and baddest of the series so far. It’s the game changer and the largest twist on all twists there is. And there are just not enough superlatives in the English language to give it its due.
Review
It’s not just me who thinks this book was the point of epic-ness. Even the publisher shies away from a detailed blurb so as to drop no spoilers. And me? I really do want other readers to experience this one in all its glory with no hints. This review will be so vague as a result that I’ll probably leave you scratching your head in confusion. Thank you to all you fantastic folks in my reader gal realm who managed to review this book without spoiling it for the latecomers.
Heart of Obsidian is book twelve of a series. This one is the culmination of a few huge series arcs in fact so definitely needs to be read in order for full appreciation.
Sooo… we have a character that has been with the series since the beginning. A character who has been ambiguous at best because he has a serious agenda and the ruthlessness to go after it. I had my suspicions about a lot of things in regard to this character and got a smug feeling of satisfaction that I guessed right. That said, it was still all kinds of intense and intriguing because this gave great attention to character and relationship development. And offered up a new character that made this a romance for the ages.
Beyond, the character and romance, the ongoing war with Pure Psy has escalated and the world trembles under the onslaught. Though this story focuses largely in the psy world, the allies do come together and fight the war. And oh yeah, some real nasties get their comeuppance.
And yes, that’s about all I’m going to say. Just know that my vagueness is all for you and this book is worth clearing several uninterrupted hours of reading time for. And, a few threads were left dangling to keep me very interested in what comes next for everyone in the PsyChangling world.

This is one of those authors that I keep telling myself I will try some day and have yet to get around to it. Maybe some day. Either way though, I’m so glad you are still loving this series 12 books in!
I do the same thing with so many series out there. Its a good one, but it will be worth it when you get the chance. 🙂
I have my next book in this series and hope to read it this week! Glad you are still loving them,.
Yes, I am definitely loving these. I’m getting closer to caught up and then I’ll have to do the waiting thing. 🙂
Look forward to seeing what you think of the next one, Kimberly.
I really need to read this series. I really don’t know why I haven’t started yet. I am glad you enjoyed this one so much!
Yes, Carole, another series to look forward to. LOL I’ve got so many that I need to start and finish. I figure we’ll have decades of books we can enjoy. 🙂
I don’t read this genre but I always love hearing about new books. Great review!
I enjoy reading reviews for books I probably won’t pick up just because, too, Cindy. 🙂 Thanks for visiting.
I’m going to have to give this series another go. I’ve been hit or miss with them but man seeing all the squee over this book really does make me want to venture in again.
I confess there are some stories that I love more than others, but this one… definitely hit the love. My favorite was book three until this one and then the next one after this gave it a run for its money. 🙂
