Selene Ravenwood, once the heir to House Ravenwood, is now an exile. On the run and free of her family's destiny, Selene hopes to find the real reason her family was given the gift of dreamwalking. But first she must adapt to her new life as wife to Lord Damien Maris, the man she was originally assigned to kill.
While adjusting to her marriage and her home in the north, her power over dreams begins to grow. As the strongest dreamwalker to exist in ages, her expanding power attracts not only nightmares but the attention of the Dark Lady herself. With a war looming on the horizon and a wicked being after her gift, Selene is faced with a choice: embrace the Dark Lady's offer, or search out the one who gave her the gift of dreamwalking. One path offers power, the other offers freedom. But time is running out, and soon her choice will be made for her.

My Review
Flight Of The Raven. Where to start? I was a bit dubious when I started the first book in The Ravenwood Saga, I mean, my opinion on YA fantasy can easily go either way. But I LOVED it! And as soon as I turned the last page I found myself highly anticipating the next book. A few months later, enter author Morgan L. Busse's brand new release Flight Of The Raven. Was it as good as the first book? It was a little different as much of the plot figures around Selene and Damien having to adjust to life together and learning to trust each other. But the answer to the question is an unequivocal YES! And now that I've finished it I keep thinking that I just can't wait months for the next release! But, I do have to wait....very impatiently...wait.
As I've said, YA fantasy fiction is not always my first choice but I absolutely do not regret giving Morgan L. Busse's The Ravenwood Saga a chance. The author's writing style is very immersive, conjuring up vivid mental pictures with simple black ink on white paper.
So, prepare for adventure in both the waking and night realms. Prepare for danger and death. Prepare for the epic battle between Light and darkness over a young woman's soul. And mostly, prepare to be unable to put the book down and to soar within the pages of Flight Of The Raven...
