Zoe’s not looking forward to moving to the one place on earth that has been classified as “the hell world” by her friends and family. She’s moving to The Dark Coast, a large portion of the U.S. that is ruled by constant cloud cover. When they arrive to their new house in a small subdivision in Forest Grove, Oregon, everything seems great. While Julian and Tori rebuild their lives together, Zoe tries to grow accustomed to her new surroundings. It’s summer, and the subdivision is filled with children her age, but Zoe finds difficulty connecting with them. That is, until she meets Tristan, her next door neighbor. Rumor has it, Tristan never communicates with anyone in the community. He’s irresistibly handsome, and his eyes seem filled with secrets. He’s known for being rude and vague, but something’s different this time. Will Zoe accept him as a friend when she discovers his secret?

Review by: David Hoyt on Jan. 20, 2012 :
The world view developed in this set of stories is wonderful. The major story lines are great. The supporting short stories and novellas add depth and background.

The world is large and broad ranging. The combined myths and number of characters can be daunting. It might be best to keep track of the characters as they develop. Minor characters show up later in the series in greater detail; often later in the book or subsequent books.

I read the first two books out of order. Which I think is a better start. The later books should be read in order. The short stories and novellas fit into a number of places. They can be read after the major novels, or between. Careful attention to time lines and characters will be important crossing the books.
