Daybreak: Immortals Descending Book Three Kindle Edition

4.6 out of 5 stars 60 ratings

Cillian Aislinn is elated when he receives an invitation to dance for a renowned patron of the arts, Lady Thora, in a beautiful lakeside manor in the hills of Kallistos. But all is not as it seems at Cladach Manor. By the time Cillian discovers the horrifying truth hiding behind a glamour of luxury, it will be too late. Cursed to suffer an immortal existence without the comfort of restful sleep, Cillian becomes the leader of a nomadic troupe of dancers, seeking what joy he can in the art that he once loved. When a series of prophetic dreams lead Cillian to a forest in search of a way to banish his curse, he encounters Astra, the god of dreams, who reveals who Lady Thora really is: the corrupted former god of art, now a spirit of decay whose influence is beginning to spread into Astra’s realm.

A child when he was summoned to the Dreamer’s Throne, Astra has spent centuries asleep, weaving dreams in the safety of a realm he can control. But when Pallas’s ire threatens his dreamers, Astra is forced to brave the waking world. With Cillian as his guide, he must find a way to defeat Pallas before her malevolence snuffs out all inspiration and art.

As they travel across Iperios, Cillian and Astra also navigate the growing attraction between them. Despite his centuries as a god, Astra knows little about mortal life, and Cillian’s curse has kept him in a state of numb exhaustion. As they awaken to their mutual desire, they learn the truth of who Cillian is and why Pallas is so determined to destroy him.

Featuring a very tired immortal without a natural alignment, a brat of a dream god who has forgotten how to be human, an evil spirit with a grudge, and a wild dash across Iperios to restore the balance between art, inspiration, and dreams.

    All of Iris’s books are unique and really interesting. The world she made is unique and I love all the characters in this story. The romance is great. It was flirty, fun and full of tension. I’m looking forward to reading the next book.

    The whole universe is so varied and well built but I love this series the most. I just can't wait to read the other stories of the gods.

    Cillian and Astra have a much less angsty relationship building than Nyx and Azaiah or even Arwyn and Declan. It's a nice change of pace but still dramatic and captivating. Just another beautiful installment by this author team

    This third book in the Immortals Descending series was my favorite so far! I loved the storyline and the guys were absolutely perfect for each other. This storyline does tie into the previous two books so it’s best to read in order to really understand what’s happening. We get to see a lot of the previous two couples in this as well as learning more about the other brothers. There’s a lot of familiar faces and places. This is my first series by this author and I’m not a huge fan of the dominant/submissive parts of the world but it’s not a dealbreaker for me.

    I hope this author duo never stops writing together, because these books are everything I've ever wanted. Awesome characters, worldbuilding, and story. I loved both MCs and adored the cameos of characters from previous books/series. And I loved how much of a brat the one MC was. It was just the right amount to not be obnoxious. I can't wait for the next book in the series!

    The latest book in this fantastic series gives off some pretty distinct horror vibes at the start, but only to evoke the proper mood for what haunts Cillian throughout the rest of the book. He is an unwitting victim in the drama between the gods that circles back to a thread in book 1 I was already invested in. This adventure is more than a follow-up, however, as Cillian eventually encounters Astra, the god of dreams, so that together they might save the world from nightmares.

    Not those nightmares – Astra is firmly in control of his realm, thank you. He’s a delight, actually, and I adore him as both a character in his own right, learning how to human (shoes! hair! spicy food!), and as a foil and romantic interest to Cillian. In this world where power exchange is biologically determined, I enjoyed how the authors once again upended their own rules by creating a character without a natural alignment. This makes his dynamic with Astra both unexpected and exciting, though I already knew I’d enjoy their connection just from the entertaining interplay between them from the first time they meet.

    Combat between gods could easily devolve into all-out war, but with the god of war still indisposed, our heroes once again find unique ways to fight their battles. The initial horror elements of this story transition to a sort of dreamlike dark fantasy, featuring stylized combat methods that are perfectly in line with Astra and Cillian’s individual and combined strengths. And though this book made me shed fewer tears than I’m used to with this series, that certainly doesn’t mean the dark moments weren’t as intense and exciting as in previous installments.

    Even better, Astra and Cillian are never necessarily on their own for any of it. Not only do we get exciting cameos from heroes in previous series set in this world, but these main characters are also surrounded by a dynamic cast of the secondary characters who make up Cillian’s performance troupe. There are quite a few of them, but each is so distinct that it never gets overwhelming, along with never devolving into stereotype. Found family has long been a theme in this world, but here it’s brought to the forefront in a way that fits the storyline without overshadowing it.

    Overall, I love that this world never gets stagnant. This author team adds unexpected layers with each new book, and the love and investment they have for their creation shows with each word. Since I follow them on social media, I have a few ideas of what’s coming up, and I’m more than ready for it.

    I think Astra may be my favorite god so far (though I am much looking forward to Levi and Ares' stories) as he was so imaginative, bratty, and naive. Watching him experience much of life with Cillian's troupe was a whole lot of fun! This whole story is something to be experienced and I loved how creative all the dream sequences are. Cillian is a tad grumpy in the beginning but really who wouldn't be running on such little sleep. I loved how he took Astra in stride and these two are very very fun together. Astra's backstory is on the sadder side and I think my favorite scene is in d'Hiver when Astra is spinning a few stories based on himself and Cillian first gets a glimpse of what Astra's mortal life may have been like. It may seem like a weird scene to be a favorite since it's kind of depressing but it's full of emotion and I think it may also be a turning point in the way Cillina may view not only Astra but what it's like for a mortal to turn immortal. Astra's story did make me cry and I am always a fan of stories that truly get me choked up.

    Iris Foxglove are incredibly talented and if you haven't read anything by them, then what are you waiting for. You could start here, but I think at a minimum you should start at the beginning of the series to understand the immortal siblings dynamic a bit more. Better yet, start with the Starian Cycle because there are quite a few crossover cameos between that and the Seasons of Lukos. (Always a good time when Aleks shows up!) As always, this is a beautiful story with wonderful characters. This time they're on a journey to save humanity's creative expression and ability to find beauty in the mundane.
