Lies.
My so-called family lied.
My friends lied.
The only guy I ever liked lied.
My mentor, the one I was supposed to trust lied.
My entire existence is built on lies and yet now they want my help. Scratch that, they need my help. I'll play the good soldier, but I'm no longer the person I was before.
This time it will be on my terms. I will trust no one.
I am a weapon. I am Jordyn.
HOLY freaking amazeballs! Seriously, I’m like at a loss for
words, but that’s not really surprising since we are talking about a Tiffany
King book. I mean when am I not, when it comes to Tiffany King? I think one of
the best things about reading this book at this given moment, is the fact that
I got to actually meet her in person a little over a month ago at UTOPYA CON
and yes I was pretty much speechless then too. In all honestly I’m surprised I
didn’t have like a fan-girl moment and scream like the girls at a Justin Beiber
concert. But that’s not what this is about right? You want to know what I
thought about Jordyn and the Cavern of Gloom right?
“I’m convinced. You
are without a doubt the biggest badass I have ever laid eyes on.”-Maximus
So if you haven’t read Jordyn first, you definitely need to
do that, otherwise you’re going to be completely lost. One of the things I love
about Jordyn is her strength. She’s this badass daemon killer, but she’s so
much more than that. At the end of Jordyn, she was feeling lost, betrayed, and
broken hearted so what did she do? She took off. She needed to figure out what
she was going to do. Being told everything you knew was a lie and that you are
this all important weapon would have you in a complete disaster. I would have
done exactly what she did, so I don’t blame her for that.
Then there’s Emrys… Oh how I love Emrys! I love how his POV
was incorporated into the story. Though I must say it confused me at were his
loyalties lie. Tiffany King you did fantastic! There’s so much I can say about
Emrys but I would give soo much away. Just know to keep faith that everything
is going to be okay, even when it doesn’t look like it. Because at times I was
at the edge of my seat and biting my nails. We also get introduced to a few new
characters… friends or foes? Well you’ll have to decide, but not all
friendships are forged without a price.
“She was everything I
wasn’t.”-Emrys
ACTION packed! It’s on from the get go and doesn’t let up.
Edge of the seat, can’t put the book down, and have you doing the bathroom
dance because you can’t stop reading. That’s what this book is about, well, at
least it was to me. I started it and couldn’t stop. Tiffany King definitely has
a way of grabbing your attention and leaves you wanting more. I cannot wait for
the next book to come out, because nothing comes without a price. And just when
you think everything is finally starting to work out… a curve ball is thrown at
you. Jordyn and Emrys, along with the other Guides and Protectors will
definitely have their work cut out for them. I CAN’T WAIT!
Usually I put my quotes in between paragraphs, but there is
one particular one that I’m going to single out and those of you who are Pitch
Perfect fanatics like I am and obviously Tiffany King is, you’ll understand
this quote: “That’s okay, it fuels my fire.” Now it may not be a direct quote
from the movie, but dang it if I didn’t laugh. What’s worse is I totally
pictured the scene in the movie. PERFECT. Another thing about Tiffany I love.
She manages to bring all emotions forth in one sitting. One minute you’re
smiling, the next you’re angry, and then you’re laughing so hard people are
staring at you like you lost your mind. But that’s not it, because it repeats
and maybe you’ll be so sad that you actually cry! I didn’t cry in this book,
but I did feel every emotion like it was directly affecting me. That’s the
beauty of a Tiffany King book and one of the many reasons why I am in absolute
awe of her. Her books never disappoint and her stories are so vivid that I can
see it play across my eyelids when I go to sleep. It’s an all-encompassing
story that will have me thinking about it for days to come, Jordyn and the
Cavern of Gloom is no exception to that.

My last word to describe Jordyn book one was AWESOMESAUCE. Well This book was that and so much more. Tiffany King has me hooked on this series and I am so glad there will be another book because I am not ready to give up this series yet. If you have not read Jordyn (the first one) then do not continue on to the Caverns of Gloom. I loved the book and is the third out yet?
This book picked up where the last left off where book one ended. Jordyn was wondering around hurt by the lies her family and Emrys and Haniel told her. She was trying to stay away from them. When Emrys and Haniel finally catch up with her she is presented with a mission to train to save Lynn and Robert who have been taken. Jordyn is forced to have to trust Haniel and defiantly trust Emrys. That was hard to do. She is put under extensive training to go to the Caverns of Gloom with Emrys to save Lynn and Robert. I loved the training part because its fun to read how strong Jordyn really is. She can kick demon ARSE. And what I loved in this book. Emrys says.... “I love you” to Jordyn. swoooon.
When it is time to go to the caverns, Jordyn and Emrys set off together. Trust is the word of the day here. Can she REALLY TRUST him?
Another thing I loved is the action packed into this book. There are NO down parts that you go “Ok hurry up”. Its action to the END!! I know I could see how Emrys really felt and at times I wanted to smack Jordyn but she took her time understanding. Soooooooo my word for this book is AMAZINGSAUCE, TERRIFICSAUCE and yahoooooooooo bring on book 3!
