Gathering Storm by Victoria DanannMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
A very good addition to the series. Storm is missing in the Passes between dimensions, and when they "find" him, it's not the Storm they all know and love. Meanwhile, the real Storm is off somewhere trying to stay alive and figure out how to get back to his world. His daughter is growing up fast - like, really fast - aging years in days. So he's missing out. And the other Storm is starting to change his mind about being an asshole.
Then there's the attack on the unit, which was a highlight of the book, what with battles and teenage warriors and Elora being wounded and trying to get everyone back in time to help.
Edge-of-my-seat!

Coming back to this again - I feel like this has become my favourite of the series. Angel Storm might not be the greatest person - in fact, he's very much a jerk - but the Knights of Black Swan do their best to whip him into shape.
Once again, Glen is the standout character, and the Rosie storyline is a lot of fun. Engel Storm's sojourn into Angel's world introduces us to some new elements of one of our favourite Knights. As for the attack on the unit, the trainees outdid themselves and many a time I found myself with a lump in my throat, heart beating wildly, as I worried about one or more of them. Talk about action blended with humour and pathos - this is where Victoria Danann really comes into her own.
