About this listen
No one knows if Steel is dead or alive...except me.
For months I kept the late night calls from Steel a secret, until he let it slip that he tracked down his villainous sister, Silver. He needs help - even if the powerful angel-shifter is too stubborn to admit it.
But the Steel I find isn’t the same boy from Seraph Academy. He’s darker. Haunted. And the distance between us can’t be crossed by a simple flap of my wings.
When a battle with the Forsaken goes horribly wrong, I awaken as a prisoner inside a Fallen stronghold. My enigmatic abductor - Thorne - is manipulative, secretive, and claiming I’m meant to rule by his side.
I’m not buying it, especially since the alluring offer to unveil the mystery of my seraph ancestry comes at the cost of bringing every Nephilim to their knees.
Lines between the realms will blur. My world will burn. And this time, I’m not sure I can fight the darkness on my own...

Story
Her entire life, Emberly has been told she’s one of two things: a liar or insane. Some days she wishes that were true. It takes being dragged to a secret training academy for the supernatural to unravel the mystery of why she sees monsters no one else does. Surprisingly, she's no more human than her captors—an elite race of angel-born warriors called Nephilim. The deadliest of them all is an arrogant shape shifter, Steel. He’s gorgeous, lethal, hot-headed . . . and convinced she’ll be the death of them all.

Yesterday I was a teenager waiting tables in Manhattan, and today, monsters exist and I can see them. Overnight I’m thrown into the realm of the Watchers, a society of earthbound angels split into two factions: the Shades, whose powerful dark magic is given to them by the fallen angels, and the Lumens, whose abilities are bestowed on them by the archangels of Avalon. They’re on opposite sides of a brutal war, and I only have a few days to pick which side I want to join. I’m ready to choose when the Shades force my hand by cursing someone I love.

I thought I had everything figured out. I’d gone to the academy for witches and mastered my magic. I’d opened my own witchy occult store, just as I always wanted. And my family was as close as ever. Everything was going according to plan. Until the wolves showed up and dragged me back to their land. It was all a misunderstanding. They had the wrong girl, the wrong idea. I was just a witch. And then I shifted. But nothing is as it appears…and now my life is in danger.

After being exiled from the only home I’d ever known, I swore to never return. So, when a distractingly handsome and alluring fae shows up asking me to do just that, my answer is "no". Except once I discover the identity of his enemy, I find myself pulled into a battle I thought I’d never fight. One that forces me to face a few of my own demons and makes me second guess every choice I’ve made since meeting Finn Barlow.

Now I know why. I’m a witch...apparently. One little demon attack and my parents confess their ugly secret…and ship me off to an elite academy of magic—for witches only. I can't summon magic. I can't fight with my hands or my fists. I just don't belong here, and Jackson Lancaster keeps reminding me every single chance he gets.

I was nobody. No matter how hard I tried, I never fit in with anyone at my high school. Now I know why. Turns out I'm a witch. A scary powerful one, too. Except The Coven that claimed me won't teach me how to use my magic. Suddenly, I'm selected by the Goddess to hunt down a mythical locket needed to save the world from destruction. The only person who actually tries to help me is the alarmingly attractive Tennessee. He has immeasurable power and breathtaking mismatched eyes. I'm drawn to him on a level I can't explain...and he's forbidden from getting too close to me.

Story
There’s only one rule in the world I come from. Keep our existence a secret. Period. The day my sister broke that rule one too many times, I knew there would be consequences. I expected us to be sent to one of those schools for “troubled” kids - and maybe Daizlei Academy was, in a way. But really, it was far more complicated than that. You see, I thought that world had forgotten me. Forgotten us. For years we were left alone, and one day...we weren’t. It was only when I got there that I remembered the second rule: Trust no one.

Packed full of drama and surprises
Another great book in the series. It was packed full of drama, action, some romance, and once again, many revelations. I can’t get over how we keep finding out more and more about Emberly and what she can do. I was shocked to meet the ruler of the fallen and forsaken. I was so worried about Steel what was going to happen, and I could not believe what happened to the human people there. Then, in the end there was a betrayal, it did not surprise me. I cannot wait to read more about Emberly’s father and what is going to happen to make everything go back to normal.

Even better than the first
Adam and Vanessa just knock it out of the park! I absolutely adore these characters, and having them brought to life, just makes it even better. Steel is missing, determined to find his sister, and Emberly is the only one he semi-talks to (if it can even be called that, up to a point). This takes you on a wild ride, and gives so many answers to questions remaining from Stealing Embers!! I highly recommend this series! You won't be sorry!

I really enjoyed this audiobook. I am anxious to hear what happens next for Steel and Emberly. I do enjoy the double narration but the male narrator can be so over-dramatic it’s almost comical at times.

ALL the sass, suspense, & emotion brought 2 life!
Forging Darkness is EVEN BETTER than Stealing Embers! It's a twisty roller coaster ride of adventure and discovery that leaves you breathless by the end.
The intricate world building made me feel like I could "see" the locations, and what was happening, and oh, the wonderful characters! They either had me snort-laughing out loud, biting my nails in dread, wanting to knock some sense into them, or getting the vapors from THE FEELZ!
Emberly's learning to trust and then protect those she deems family. The insights into Steel's character from his point of view, and his chemistry & connection to Emberly, then Sterling, Blaze and Aurora, with their audaciousness, and the love & allegiance of the rest of Emberly's newfound friends...even little Tinkle, are fantastic! Even though I wish there had been more of Tinkle's activities brought to light, like when he vanishes or some of his other escapades, his relationship with one of the others was adorable. (Julie, hint: Tinkle novella?! Wink , wink, want more Tink!)
The new characters, such as the enigmatic Thorne, bring in a whole new level of "what now?!" More exposure to the Fallen and the Forsaken had me cringing for Emberly. And wicked Julie then threw in some convoluted and murky information, but when it starts coming to light, it's just mind blowing!
Head's up, there is a definite hook at the end that had me wanting to throw my reader, after I caught my breath, so be prepared! So need book 3, & it can't get here fast enough! (Though I know Julie Hall should get to bask in her accomplishment first, so no pressure!)
Vanessa Moyen truly brings all the sass & emotion alive, & Adam Gold really makes Steel a larger than life presence! Well done!
An ALC was provided by the author, publisher, or promotional service, and I have chosen to leave an honest review.

Great listen!
I'm really enjoying this story and world. Book 2 did not disappoint either. By far I really enjoy the group of friends Emberly has around her. Not to mention the evolution of Emberly's and Steel's relationship, really has you rooting for them. I'm really looking forward to the next book!

Amazing story!
I love this series! The world Julie Hall has created is so captivating.
Book 2 picks up right after book 1. Just when I thought I knew what was going to happen BAM Emberly is thrown a curveball.
This book hints that something larger is at play, and boy was it a doozy.
I will definitely be listening to the rest of the series.
