The Fallen Stars is the 2nd book in the Star Child series and like book one, its an absolute smash hit! The Fallen stars begins where the first book left off, at Kellen and Calienta's wedding. However, being a Goddess and a Mortal usually means one thing............things are never going to go as planned and the love struck couple are once again propelled into a land of magic, mystery, faerie and uncertainty. They will be left wondering if their love and their very different lives will survive what lies ahead.
Kellen and Calienta once more face enemies with immensely powerful magic. This time they are aided by Gabe, Kellen's best and loyal friend as a battle between good and evil, light and dark sets to rage on not only the mortal world but the faerie world too and a prophecy threatens Kellen and those he loves. Will the prophecy come true and will Kellen turn to the darkness and evil? The time for choosing sides has arrived! But at what cost? Kellen must once again face his demons from the past and reconcile his feelings of grief and loss. Will the lure of all he has dreamt of be enough to tempt him to choosing a different path?
I just thought this book was fantastic! I loved the introduction of some new characters and the reappearance of some original characters from the first book. The story moves along at an even faster pace than the first, barely giving the reader time to catch their breath before being hit with an unexpected twist! I have to say, I did have a few open-mouthed moments and a lot of gasps of surprise at some clever plot twists. Stephanie Keyes has once again created a roller coaster of fantasy that leaves you on the edge of your seat. Although this book is aimed at a YA audience I'd have to recommend it to everyone! I simply could not put it down and had an 'OMG!' moment at the end. I'm not sure how I'll cope waiting for the next instalment in the series!
