Blackness.
Like a wet and moonless night, darkness encompassed Lillian’s entire world. A wrenching sense of dislocation. Endless falling through nothing. A void. No sense of direction. No soothing forest. Not even ground to stand upon.
Sound returned in waves, fading then strengthening. The pooka’s snorted challenge. Her own breathing came, raspy and panicked.
Between one blink and the next, the sun warmed her skin again.
Lillian lay upon damp ground, the sky overhead a clear blue with the occasional fluffy cloud. To judge by the color of the sky, she was still on earth. She sat up and glanced around. The trees were of a familiar type but instinct said she was elsewhere, Gregory a long way off.
Thinking of him allowed Gregory into her mind. “Lillian! Don’t do this. Use your power and fight them. Escape.”

Personnellement, je n'ai pas apprécié ce livre qui semble être destiné pour des adolescents. Comme il était super bien évalué, j'avais beaucoup d'attente qui n'ont pas été rencontrée.
Je ne le mets pas dans la catégorie pas apprécié parce qu'il y a tout de même ce petit quelque chose qui a fait que je l'ai lu jusqu'à la fin. C'est une bonne histoire mais c'est juste trop ado à mon goût.

Résumé
When Lillian finds herself facing off against vampires and other mythological impossibilities, help comes from an unlikely source—the stone gargoyle who has been sleeping in her garden for the last twelve years.
After the battle, Lillian learns the humans she thought were her family are actually a powerful coven of witches at war with the demonic Riven. Lillian is something more than human, a Sorceress and Avatar to the gods. Gregory has been her protector for many lifetimes, but when she was still a child troubles in their homeland forced him to flee with her to the human world. However, Gregory fears something from her childhood followed them to this world—he suspects Lillian is host to an infant demon, one capable of evil greater than even the Riven.
Extra complications arise when she realizes she’s concealing a forbidden love for her guardian. While she might be able to defeat the Riven with Gregory’s help, she does not know if her fragile new love can survive the evil growing in her own soul.
Author's Note: Sorceress Awakening was previously published as Stone’s Kiss and was part of the Urban Fantasy series called The Avatars.
