Libera Me (Requiem, #2) in Q&A with Christine Fonseca

Jan 15, 2012 Christine Fonseca rated it it was amazing · (Review from the author)

Aydan and Zane...where to begin. This is a tangled story of love and loss, sacrifice and revenge, good and evil. I have loved watching the development of Aydan, Nessa, Zane and Cass. And the new characters - well, I just love them too! All I can promise is that this is a story that will keep you wondering, hanging on edge of your seat until the bitter end. Some answers will be given, some relationships revealed. But it wouldn't be one of my stories without something unexpected. Just saying!

I hop ...more

I won a competition and won the novella Dies Irae (#0.5) and Lacrimosa (#1) and I have continued on the Requiem series by reading the Mea Culpa (#1.5). So when I found the Book Tour for the next instalment in the series, Libera Me, I was so on board!! Christine has continued the amazing journey of Aydan and Zane in this book and of course she has left me wanting more!

So when I found the Book Tour for the next instalment in the series, Libera Me, I was so on board!! Christine has continued the amazing journey of Aydan and Zane in this book and of course she has left me wanting more!

Libera Me is an emotional journey for both characters in this book as they both believe that Nessa is Nesy reborn. But Nessa has no memories of any past lives and cannot believe that she is that person. But there are some things that she does that leads both guys to believe that Nesy is just hidden real deep in Nessa’s mind.

Zane takes it upon himself to help her remember. But Zane has to convince The Council of his plans, as well as deal with his own emotions. Aydan tries to convince her that he loves Nessa whether she has her memories or not. But Aydan has his own demons to fight and is not sure who he can trust anymore.

All of my favourite characters made appearances in this book too. Cass plays a big role, trying to anchor Zane. Gabriel and Mikayal try to guild Zane on the right path. But there is a major twist in the story and maybe a new player in the War between Angels and Demons!

Christine wove a brilliant story of love and friendship. She takes us into some dark aspects, but it all combines into an astonishing story that I found hard to put down. And she was able to shatter my heart by the end of the book. (I shed a few tears too!!)

I also had a vested interest in Libera Me as I got to name a character. He makes a small cameo role in this book and I was so excited to meet Tristan!! (Named after my Son!) But to top things off for the whole book, I was mentioned in the acknowledgements!! Can you believe it?? I was rendered speechless, and then I posted it everywhere!!

To Naomi ~ Thanks for loaning me “Tristan”; although nothing more than a cameo in this story, I have “seen” the story that lays ahead, and man...what an amazing character!

Now isn’t that mind blowing!! For us readers, not writers, it is a dream to get mentioned in a book.... So my dream has come true!! Thank you so much Christine for sharing Aydan and Zane’s story. It was truly incredible and I can’t wait for more!! ...more

I would like to thank Christine Fonseca for giving me this book to read and review. It was wonderful, and I am just so sorry I didn't finish it faster.

Libera Me was a roller coaster of emotions that left me anxious, and gasping, and happy, and then on the next page heart broken. It was a story I could not predict where it was going, and what would happen next. It had so many different twists and turns and surprises.

Aydan. Such a tortured soul. Trying to deny The Beast, and help the only one he ...more

The sum of who we are is encapsulated by our memories and experiences giving us a sense of identity, an anchor to this life, What if you had no memories to draw upon, you would become lost and vulnerable, helpless even and Nessa is no different. Gone is the warrior sentinel and a scared human girl has taken her place though Ayden fights to recover his Nesy and help her regain her memories. I kind of felt like a ping pong ball at times (terrible analogy I know) because sometimes I was team Ayden ...more

First and foremost, thank you Christine for providing a copy of this review. Secondly, thank you Christine for these characters and this world. Libera Me was exactly what I expected. Brilliant. How could it not be, I mean this is Aydan and Zane we're talking about. I loved the alternating viewpoints from Zane and Aydan. The heartbreak each of them felt was written so painfully clear. Aydan's confusion over what could be going on and Zane's inability to past what he wants to believe. I just love ...more

An emotional ride that kept me guessing at every turn, dip, and upside down whirl. It isn't often that an author can blow me away with the first book and then out-do themselves with the second and impress me even more, but that's what Christine has done. This novel will have you gripping your e-reader until your fingers are white. Love, sacrifice, redemption, damnation, hot angels and demons, it has it all and so much more! ...more
