Dream Dark

Very quick and fun read but I think [b:Beautiful Chaos 10757833 Beautiful Chaos (Caster Chronicles, #3) Kami Garcia https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1327878503l/10757833.SY75.jpg 11254742] does a much better job on the subject.

This is pretty much the textbook definition of “meh.” The primary purpose of this short story “of Gatlin's first, and only, Linkubus” is to provide a bridge between [b:Beautiful Darkness 7842288 Beautiful Darkness (Caster Chronicles, #2) Kami Garcia http://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1327879100s/7842288.jpg 10937544] and [b:Beautiful Chaos 13526144 Beautiful Chaos (Caster Chronicles, #3) Kami Garcia http://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1340758738s/13526144.jpg 11254742], which is does well enough. But the thing is, there's already a land-bridge between the two books – Chapter 1 of [b:Beautiful Chaos 13526144 Beautiful Chaos (Caster Chronicles, #3) Kami Garcia http://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1340758738s/13526144.jpg 11254742]. Dream Dark is totally unnecessary. Add to that the fact that practically nothing happens. Nothing we need to know, anyhow. We get more details on the aftermath of Link being bitten by the half-Incubus, and how he deals with it early on – but we don't learn anything we need to know. And it's not even that particularly entertaining.If this story'd been told from Link's POV rather than Ethan's, maybe that could've been enough to justify this. But as it is...meh.
