Nalini Singh is a creative genius... Just saying :)
I love the worlds she creates and I'm always more then willing to delve into her stories head first.
Shield of Winter is no exception. It centres around Vasic, an arrow solider we've seen in several of the previous stories from this world and every time I've asked my self ... What is his story? And especially, who could break his Silence?
The answer is Ivy Jane... An empath (e-Psy) who was shattered by the silence protocol.
This story has really taken us to the next stage of the Psy-changeling world. We've read about many Psy 'breaking out' and breaking their silence, and now the whole of the Psy populace are allowed to finally feel. Silence has fallen.
But the years of repressed emotion has created a deadly virus that is sending the Psy into a violent melt down. People are going crazy, filled with violent emotions and killing anyone in their way. E-Psy are the life line that saves the day; as anyone who is linked/bonded with one is save from the deadly virus. Ivy creates the honeycomb protocol which makes sure everyone is connected to an e-Psy, therefore saving them, but some people still believe in silence and refuse to join.
The question now is... How will these people effect the next stories to come, as they allow the virus to continue and not die. And... Now silence has fallen, what will become of the Psy race?
Ivy and Vasic make a beautiful love story as always, a man with a heart incased in ice, being saved by a woman full of life and emotions that slowly melt away his barriers and allows him to find his worth. They say they want to wait until the world is safe and settled before having children but will that ever happen?
I guess we'll have to read on and see in the next instalments , which I know from reading Nalini's blog, there are plenty more in the future to look forward to!
I give this 5* stars!!!
