Enter the realm of the Immortals—the #1 New York Times bestselling series that’s been acclaimed as breathtaking, mesmerizing, flawless and extraordinary.
Ever and Damen have traveled through countless past lives—and fought off the world’s darkest enemies—so they could be together forever. But just when their long-awaited destiny is finally within reach, a powerful curse falls upon Damen…one that could destroy everything.

Review:
Shadowland was a lot better than the second book in the series, but still wasn't as good as the first book, Evermore. It picked right back up where the last stopped which includes more more drama between Damen and Ever; if they share any DNA, it could send Damen to Shadowland forever. Since Ever doesn't have enough boy troubles between Damen and Roman, Jude comes into her life and seems like they have met before. Also, Ever has to face troubles when the Twins from Shadowland lose their magic and can't go back.
There was a lot more magick and other paranormal things that made it more interesting to read. I really like how fast-paced the story was, and how quickly I read it. I've started to really like the characters and just love reading about them. So far I really enjoy reading the series and can't wait to read the next book, Dark Flame, which comes out this summer!
