Summary: Can't wait for the finale!
Comment: Wow..as always, Nora Roberts blows me away with her writing and stories. This book was no exception. Be warned..it is the second book in the Key trilogy, so be sure and read the first one before attempting this novel. (key of light)
The key of knowledge follows librarian Dana on her quest for the missing key that will unlock a magical box and free three celtic demi goddesses from their long prison of sleep. Joining her on her quest are Mallory and Zoe..her best friends, business partners, and fellow key searchers.
Helping Dana is Jordan Hawke, a mystery writer who she has always loved but who broke her heart when she was younger. Jordan is determined to win her back, help her find her key and protect her from the evil god, Kane. Their relationship is complex--friends, ex-lovers, he is also her brother's best friend.
This book expands on the story line introduced in the first book- Kane becomes more of an active evil force, Pitte and Rowena are better characterized, and it is nice to revisit with Mallory, Flynn, and Moe (from the first book). The book also gives us a glimpse of what's to come in the final book with Zoe and Brad's relationship
.
The second book was in my opinion, better than the first book- Dana is likable, complex, smart and her emotions are multi-layered. She is once again attracted to Jordan, but knows that could lead to another broken heart. She is at a crossroads in her life- having quit her steady job and taking a chance on opening her own business. She is also on a time limit to completing her part of the key quest.
I love how Nora Roberts uses Celtic myths and magical elements to enhance the story. It is so well done that it is easy to suspend belief and really believe in the legends, gods, curses and evil.
I can't wait to finish this trilogy and eagerly await Zoe and Brad's story....

Summary: Another exciting trilogy by Nora Roberts
Comment: Key of Knowledge is the second book in the exciting new trilogy by Nora Roberts. The first book, Key of Light, set the stage by introducing the reader to three women - Malory, Dana and Zoe. Facing financial difficulty, each of the women is offered one million dollars to find an ancient key. If they succeed, they get the money but if they fail there are dire consequences. Will the women accept the challenge and fulfill their destiny?
Key of Knowledge picks up where Key of Light left off. Malory found her key in Key of Light, now its Dana's turn. Dana must make peace with the past and with Jordan Hawke, the man who broke her heart, in order to accomplish her part of the quest. Will Dana succeed in the time allowed? How will each of the women use her unique strength in order for all three to prevail?
In typical Roberts's style, the well developed characters and compelling story kept me turning pages late into the night. Roberts has a knack for evoking emotion with genuine, realistic dialogue.
This book sets the scene for the next and last book in the trilogy, Key of Valor, I can't wait to hear Zoe's story.
Rating: 4
Summary: Great Middle Book
Comment: "Key of Knowledge" is the second of the Key trilogy, and my favorite. In this novel we are reintroduced to Dana Steele and her story. Dana has had her heartbroken by Jordan Hawke many years ago, and never been fully able to get over him or the resulting heartache. Unfortunately for her Jordan is integral to this journey which means spending a lot of time with the one person she has envisioned dying a slow and painful death.
I liked Dana because of her flaws. Dana loves to read and spends her time doing what she loves only to find her foundation shaken from underneath her. She not only has to wrestle with her pride and heartache, but the future and it's possibilities. As she and her soul sisters open up their minds and hearts to each other as they form a business relationship. Dana finds it tougher to do the same in regards to Jordan. She has tremendous pride and learning to swallow that for Dana is a bitter pill, especially if she has to do so with Jordan.
"Key of Knowledge" was a fun, light book to read and relax to.
