Once I was a Charmer, and the magical beasts of this world loved me. Now I'm something else. Something darker. A spicy, beautifully angsty enemies-to-lovers LGBTQIA+ fantasy romance. As a member of the Charmers Council, Gaige is able to form lasting bonds with the magical beasts of his world. At least, he used to be a Charmer...until he died and was brought back as one of the immortal assassins of Cruor. Now he's far more dangerous. ...and something beyond the shadows lies in wait, hungry to claim him for its own. As leader of the assassins, all Kost can do is watch as Gaige struggles with his new life day by day. He wants nothing more than to ease Gaige's sufferingyet how can he when they both know he's the one responsible? There is nothing left but bitter memories and hopeless longing between them. Yet when Gaige is lost to the shadow realm, Kost is the only one with any chance of bringing him back: if they can learn to trust (and perhaps love) each other again. Intense, compelling, and impossible to put down, Shadows of the Lost is perfect for readers looking for: epic New Adult fantasy series with a bit of spice a unique premise, delicious angst, and a plot to die for high fantasy with paranormal and romance elements

This is a spin off series of the Beast charmer series. It mostly follows Kost and Gage but we still get Leena and a few other perspectives.

It‘s after the end of The Shattered Crown series. Gage is learning how to deal with his shadows. There are shadow beasts attacking towns and they have to figure out how to stop them.

I really liked this book and I hope the author keeps writing!

🎧 Book 1 of Guild of the Night Series. This is a spin off. Read the original trilogy as it will explain Kost & Gaige‘s relationship & what‘s happened to get them to this unique point.

Action packed. The world & beasts are drawn so beautifully. Miscommunication - a common trope for YA/NA - this book uses it to almost frustrating levels. You‘ll be rooting for them but how can Kost get beyond Gaige‘s actions.

Adult situations. LGBTQ+

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2
