Once upon a time, the Dammai--the legendary race of sorcerers, ruled the land of the Medyars in peace. And the obelisk in the keep's tower in Katandi shone with a light so bright that all might know of their presence. But since their defeat at the hands of Kargan, the land has fallen to war & turmoil. A hundred years later, the Dammai are mere stories to frighten children...

Lord Justan, a direct descendant of Kargan, is the ruler of one of the four domains--Katandi, the former capital of the Dammai. A fierce warrior & a compassionate leader, he is determined to stop at nothing until he becomes king of ALL the Medyars. Destiny seems to smile on him when he discovers that the lythra player Rozlynd is actually the last of the Dammai. However, he doesn't count on Rozlynd herself & love she's willing to fight for...

I absolutely love these 'save the world' themes, especially if our heroes have something extra like magic/ESP to spice things up. If you liked this, another futuristic romance you'll love is Janice Tarantino's "Crystal Prophecy."

Well what can I say, this was the first novel that I have read of Ms Dawsons and I was hooked onto her woork from that moment.
It is a great story that captures your heart and imagination. I loved the idea of the Dammie and how they get a second chance at what hey do best, and how the heroine has to struggle with not only living in a new town but also her heritage and her new powers. Hope you enjoy this book as well

This review is from: Awakenings (Lovespell) (Paperback)

"Awakenings" has joined my list of 5 star books. It is well written and actually has a plot. The charactors are believeable and likeable--and are presented as someone who you could know. This book has joined a favored few that I have reread a number of times. Kudos to Saranne Dawson for this book.
