After discovering her true identity and coming to terms with an unimaginable heritage, Della Doe Deare finally thinks she has things figured out. She is learning the ropes of both her human and non-human responsibilities; ones which will soon include leading an army and may one day mean ruling a people. As the sole person able to control all five elements, she will have the power to protect everyone that she loves - and destroy anything that threatens them. But first, she has to survive the Elfennol training.
When an enemy with a reputation for torture sets his murderous sights on Della, she must submerge herself further into the Elfennol world, explore the other half of her inheritance, and move toward a destiny too large for mortal shoulders.
But not everything is as it appears; not all Clades are her enemies, and the Elfennol aren’t as pure as they let on. When Della finds friendship - and protection - in the form of a troubled boy born on the wrong side of an endless war, she discovers that this new world operates only in shades of gray and the only difference between good and evil is which side you’re fighting for.
This is the second book in the Gathering Water trilogy, and should not be heard out of order.

Della is a wonderful character, flaws and all. In this book, Della is growing into her own and discovering more about her past and her powers. I really love the relationship between Della and her cousin Cash. I didn't care much for the romantic relationship choice but it did lend itself to one heck of an ending!
The narrator was knock-your-socks-off good!! I loved everything about her portrayals. Whether you like the subject matter or not, the narration keeps you in the book.
The ending was a bit of a shocker but it sets up nicely for the last book in the series.
That ending though!

It's hard to write a review without spoiling the first book, but I'll try! I loved book one in this series, and this was a great follow up. Della's strength makes her a powerful lead, and her vulnerability makes her immensely likable. She never feels sorry for herself, she's just trying to fit in to her new role and she tackles it head on. This was a clean read I'd recommend to young teens on up. I feel like we're building up to a great finale!
The narration was really good, with different voices for each character. She was really easy to listen to. I requested a copy of the audiobook, and I'm voluntarily leaving a review.
A Great Follow Up

Our main protagonist, Della Doe Deare, has come to terms with her supernatural heritage and begins visiting with her nonhuman family members, the Elfennol. She delves deeper into her upcoming inheritance and begins to learn more about her supposed enemy, the Clade.
This was a well-written book and the narrator performed it beautifully. I am anxious to see where Regan Oakley takes us with her next installment as this book left us with a huge cliffhanger.
This is the second book of the Gathering trilogy.

I really enjoyed the first book, so was eager to jump right into this one. It did not dissapoint. Now that Della has come into her power, queue the training montage! So yeah, this book is definitely about her mastering her abilities (and responsibilities) but it is about a whole lot more than that. I don't do spoilers in my reviews, so you'll have to pick it up to find out. It's worth it, though!
A great 2nd book of the series

Now we have Ezra and know who Dellas father is. Cash continues to be one of my favorites. More stories from the journals continue to be revealed.
I love this series and these characters.
