The Chosen One
by Siobhan Davis
I received an eARC of this book from the author. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of this review.
Please note there are spoilers to previous books in the following review. If you have not read the prior books in the Alinthia series, read at your own risk.
I’ve been reading Siobhan Davis since her first novel [b:True Calling|23293202|True Calling (True Calling, #1)|Siobhan Davis|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1456943208i/23293202._SY75_.jpg|42275397] released. You would think that I would know better by now than to start one of her books before bed. But y’all I’ll never learn, and I’ll happily lose sleep every time. The Chosen One is the fourth book in Davis’s Alinthia series and wastes no time in throwing the reader into the action. Picking up almost exactly where [b:The Warrior Princess|39329164|The Warrior Princess (Alinthia #3)|Siobhan Davis|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1527868972i/39329164._SY75_.jpg|60954624] left off, Alinthia and her protectors are back on Earth, an Earth that is currently surrounded by Arantu’s army. Her job is simple now, reveal herself to the galaxy and build an army of her own.
Division Among the Ranks
Alinthia and her protectors went through hell and back during the last book. Her protectors were captives or Arantu and his daughter. Dane suffered most at the hands of Alandra. His PTSD affects the entire group, Alinthia the most. Alinthia wants to help Dane. Of her four protectors, he is the leader and also the one that has never fully opened up to her. She makes herself available for him, showing that he can trust her if need be. Yet he continues to hold back, his character arc is heart-breaking. Siobhan Davis handles his character with care and shows the depths of his feelings for the readers.
Cooper, Beck, and Maddox are also still dealing with their time in captivity. However because their torture was different than Dane’s (remember he took the brunt for them), they take every minute they can to show Alinthia their love and devotion. I forgot how much I love each of them. They are fully fleshed out and bring their own unique gifts to the team. Beck is still my favorite though
