My rating: 5 of 5 stars

It Comes From Within (House Valdis #2) by Naomi Valkyrie was a great 5 star read.

I was pulled right in from the beginning. This was a great storyline. There are several different characters that you meet in book one and continue into book two. We get several POV’s which also helps you connect with them as well.

Xenobia is the head of House Valdis and the main character. Xenobia is feeling the pressure of being the leader and is feeling at her wits end. Her team is trying to find a blood den, what will happen if/when they find it?

Overall this was a great read. All of the characters are strong in their own ways and added a great element to the story. This is a quick read with lots of action, romance, suspense, and so much more. You should read book one first so that you can understand the story and characters better. I can’t wait to read the next book in the series so I can see where things are going. The author does a great job of pulling you right into the story. If you’re looking for a great fantasy read this is the series for you. 1-click and get started today.

It Comes From Within (House Valdis Book 2) by Naomi Valkyrie. I love this series! This is not my favorite genre but once I read the first book I couldn’t wait to read this one. This is the story of Xenobia who is still reeling from events in the first book. With trying to merge the 2 Houses and all the added responsibility Xenobia is overwhelmed to say the least. While in the process of rebuilding someone starts attacking House Valdis and its becoming more dangerous by the minute. Xenobia is finding out who her real friends are and is weeding them out as she goes. When she finds a illegal blood room and is interviewing everyone she finds out someone she trusted is not her friend. The White Queen also has Xenobia in her radar and she plans on taking her out as quick as she can so she can rule. This book is so good and keeps you turning the pages as fast as you can. I truly think you will enjoy it much more if you will read book one first. Do yourself a favor and read It Comes from Within now!

It Comes from Within is book 2 in the House Valdis series by Naomi Valkyrie. I did not read the first book, House Valdis, but I did read Xenobia. While I felt like there was a lot of background knowledge I was missing, it wasn’t detrimental to the story. I still really enjoyed it. I don’t normally read this genre, but am really glad I decided to read it. I honestly love it, and want to read more. There are a lot of characters, which was confusing at first. Some are werewolves, some vampires, etc so I had a hard time remembering who had what powers. I think reading book 1 first would have helped with that, so I recommend reading in order. The whole story line is very creative and the relationships between the characters is great. There was a sense of mystery in the book, trying to figure out who the White Queen is and the connection there. I was glad it wasn’t given away early on. There are a lot of adult themes so definitely for older readers. The story does have a cliff hanger ending so be prepared. I am anxiously awaiting the next book so I can see what happens.

A couple quick things before proceeding, if you have not read book 1, do so before reading this one as it is very helpful and you will be able to follow seamlessly into this story. Also, while this is not my chosen favorite genre, this author sure has a way to rope me right in and enjoy every word.

Xenobia is trying her best to everything needed with joining the 2 houses together and when a threat comes to be, will she be able to step up?
I really love these characters and can just picture everything that is happening.
A great read and I cannot wait for more from this author!

4 Stars!!!!

Another adventure into the House of Valdis world and I was not let down. I really like the whole story line and the refreshing take on the supernatural. The characters just seem to come to life as you follow the story and drama. I like how the author has a unique and refreshing take on this. There are so many books now a days that are too close to another that I really find
it refreshing to have a story line and plot that is unique and original.

I really find the characters have a very unique bond that they have formed and the group just really outlines a great base for the book. I thought that the drama really was well laid out and that the basis of the story really draw the reader in. I really like how the author is able to draw upon the Xenobia’s past and show how it has shaped her to what she has become and also the way that she has to show she is not like the old Master and has to come into her own. I really look forward to reading more into this series and see how things unfold.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Naomi Valkyrie has once again shown what an incredible author she is with this supernatural fantasy read.
This is a go-to genre for me but, this author really adds another level to it! She has created a storyline that is compelling, fast-paced and action-packed. All the while creating characters that really stand out and makes this story what it is, EPIC!

This read has got to be my favourite by far, it has to be read as part of the series for the reader to truly connect with the storyline and amazing characters. and be the incredibly captivating read that it is, but not only that you will not want to miss any detail of it!

I don’t want to give any of the story away so I’ll keep it brief, but I was once again left turning the pages wanting to find out more from these brilliant characters stories and the journeys they take along the way. Xenobia is back showing how strong, independent and totally epic she is! I loved that this book is written in various POV’s it gives you an even better understanding of the characters and helps you connect with them even more!

This book is one that you will not want to put down, its exciting, action-packed, suspenseful and epic in every way possible!

I highly recommend this read and will eagerly be awaiting the next in the series!

Well Done Naomi, Well Done!

This is book 2 in the House of Valdis and what a book.

The story continues after 6 months with Xenobia now taking over the House and running it. Surrounded by vampires and people with other supernatural gifts they need to go through all the people who followed the old boss and see who is loyal to her. The stress of trying to merge the two houses starts to take its toll on Xenobia and when a new blood den is found along with it comes a new enemy, The White Queen.
She has her eye set on taking out Xenobia and becoming the leader over the whole area.

Xenobia trys  to figure out the White Queens weaknesses but at every turn the White Queen is one step ahead of her.

Can Xenobia survive the attacks and the memories that flood back to her or will her old memories be her downfall and haunt her forever.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

It Comes From Within by Naomi Valkyrie a five-star read that will encapsulate you. This is number two in the House Valdis series and it’s a very complex story with lots of characters, but you will be so consumed by the writing that you will be able to keep up easily. I would definitely advise you to read number one first as this picks a little while after and continues with the story, and its difficult to put what happens into a review as there is so much I don’t want to reveal. Xen was just someone who will surprise you at every turn, but they aren’t the only character that surprised me in this one. Do yourself a favour and pick up the series.

Four Stars

It Comes From Within is the second book in the House Valdis series by Naomi Valkyrie. This series should be read in order to fully understand the plotline. This book takes place six months after the Rise Of the House Valdis. The story is multi layered with amazing characters. I would consider it to be Fantasy/Sci-Fi which is not a normal genre that I read, but Ms. Valkyrie really has my attention with this series. All of the characters in this book have a voice and I love how we learn more about them and thing that have shaped their lives. This author is growing with every book and I look forward to reading many more books in the future.

It Comes From Within (House Valdis Book 2) by Naomi Valkyrie is actually the third book as Naomi recently released a great prequel. This book is a fantastic paranormal fantasy story that has so much in it, action and danger, romance and let’s not forget the humour. There is so much more but I will leave it for you to read and enjoy. This complex yet compelling story is a game changer and I was so engrossed and invested in it. I had to get to the end to see how it all ended up. You need to read the other two books to get the back story of the characters. Honestly, I am ready to read it again it was so good.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the second novel in the House Valdis novels from Naomi Valkyrie and I have been loving every adventure filled moment reading them. I would highly recommend that you read the first book before diving into this one because you will need that story background to fully enjoy and follow the novel. One of my favorite parts of reading Valkyrie is she manages to spin a fantasy novel with detail and action that keeps me enthralled. I like the dark elements and the attention to the details that matter. Often while reading fantasy novels I get lost in the made up languages or scenarios that the world is hard for me to dive in. I do not have that problem with Valkyrie’s novels and I love it.This novel takes up six months after the first book and we find Xenobia dealing with a complex set of issues. The way this story builds upon itself makes it hard for me to review without divulging way too much of the good stuff so for the details you will have to read this one yourself. I can’t wait to see what adventures we will find Xenobia and the rest of the gang take on in the next novel!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

It Comes From Within by Naomi Valkyrie is the second book in the House Valdis series. This is an incredible book that utterly captivated me from the word go. I love reading about Xenobia. She is such a wonderful character that for me really makes the whole story come alive. I can imagine her so easily and it really feels like I am right there with her.
I would recommend reading this series in order so you can fully understand what is going on although also because they are such fantastic books. The author has written brilliantly original books that are so well developed and thought out that you won’t be able to stop reading them once you have started. There is a bit of everything in there so it really tantalises all of the sense.
I absolutely loved this book from start to finish and I am already eagerly awaiting to see what might be next – in the meantime I might have to re-read the whole series again.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This the second book in the series and I highly recommend reading the first book in the series. This will provide you with the back story and introduce the characters. The description is a fantasy genre but it has many more elements in the story. There is sci-fi, danger, responsibility, secrets, tension, romance and magic to name a few. When the author has a vivid imagination, it makes the story come to life. It is what holds my attention from the very first page until the last page. Character building and relations also keeps the book interesting. In this particular story, I enjoyed the roller coaster ride I took with Xenobia. Xenobia’s storyline continues in book two. She is getting into every bit of trouble, not by her doing but by shadows she does not realize they are around. Danger is present and there is a crisis in the House of Valdis. There is drama and adventure around every corner. I will leave the review with this keep your mind totally open and the images will come to you. Enjoy the series and I cannot wait until the next book.

It Comes From Within by Naomi Valkyrie is the second book in the House Valdis series. I highly recommend reading the first book before this because most of the characters are introduced there. This is a multi-faceted and complex fantasy book. The characters, especially Xenobia, are really deep and interesting. I really enjoy the storyline and it is interesting to see where the author is taking the story. I like the multiple layers of story and character development going on because it pushes the pace of the book and makes it almost impossible to set it down. This is not always one of my favorite genres but Naomi Valkyrie is making a convert of me. She writes and tells a story very well and keeps this reader engaged until the very last page. I look forward to reading more from this author in the future.

I loved this book! This is the second book in this series and it just keeps getting better and better! I would most defidently recommend reading this series in order to get the best reading experience possible. They’re all fantasic and its awesome to see all the characters grow and see the where they are now. Xenobia is our main character and she is awesome! She is determined to show that she is not like the ones that came before her but the road she is on is a tough one! I read this book fairly quickly and i enjoyed all the the action that it held. I am looking forward to more by this author and i can’t wait to see what she puts out next!

It Comes From Within by Naomi Valkyrie was an incredible sequel in the House Valdis series! I think I liked it better than I did the first book! Much more interesting in my opinion, more suspense and action, and more character development. I was enthralled the whole time reading and could hardly put the book down! I’m also glad I read the Xenobia Origin story before reading this one, it definitely helps with some of the characters that were introduced in this installment! I fell in love with this book and I can’t wait to read the next part of the series! I highly recommend this read!

Fun! I thought this book was a lot of fun to read. There were a lot of characters to keep track of, and if you are like me and didn’t read the first book then you may get slightly confused. I still pushed through and was happy I did. I would highly recommend you read the first book so you can get some background on all of the characters you will be reading about, which will help you figure out what is happening in this book and what relationships they have with each other. I did read House Valdis Origins so I was at least able to get a glimpse at Xen and Urd. I like how each chapter told whose point of view I was going to be reading, that helped with figuring out what was going on. From where Xen started to where she is now, it seems like she really made something of herself and has been surrounded by people that truly care about her. The relationship between her and Matthew and Onyx is crazy, but in my mind I’m hoping she can sever the ties that hold them together and can be with Chiamaka, I feel like there is something there for them. The twist with the white queen had my mind blown! I loved how the story flowed and all the drama involved around House Valdis. This is not my usual genre but this book really intrigued me with the story and how nicely the characters were developed. I can’t wait to see what comes next.

By Naomi Valkyrie
5 out of 5 stars

I loved reading the book It Comes From Within (House Valdis Book 2) by Naomi Valkyrie. It is a story that had me hooked from the very beginning and didn’t let me go until the final page. I love the character of Xenobia. She is the head of House Valdis. She also is feeling the strain of that leadership. I love that Xenobia is intelligent, strong, and independent. She is also considerate of those around her and truly cares about them. What will happen when situations begin to overwhelm her? What will happen when the past collides with the future? Read this book to find out. This is a character-driven book. It tells the story from the POV of many of them and you get a chance to find out more about them and the part that they play in the story. For some characters, this is an emotional journey and for others, it is a time of self-discovery. I love fantasy books and this one is a good example of why. The author does an amazing job of making both the storyline and the characters come alive on the pages. I felt like I was right there with them. Don’t miss out on an exciting and entertaining story that you won’t want to put down. I would recommend reading these stories in order for a better experience. You won’t be disappointed.

It Comes From Within is the second book in the House Valdis series by Naomi Valkyrie. This is a very engrossing, and complex paranormal fantasy with a multi-layered storyline full of sci-fi elements, action, danger, violence, responsibility, suspense, secrets, vendettas, humour, tension, dramatic developments, romance, chemistry, hidden agendas, and magic.
We met the majority of the cast back in Book One, so it was great to pick up with them again. Xenobia is still trying to come to terms with what occurred (in Book One) and all the added responsibility that brings. Merging the two houses and all the restructuring has taken time and a lot of energy. She is feeling the pressure and isn’t sure how much more she can take. It seems like she’s leaping from one crisis right into another. Then someone begins targeting House Valdis- danger is mounting, with a mysterious and malevolent adversary plotting from the shadows, one who has no intention of playing by the rules and is hell bent on winning at all cost, things escalate pretty quickly. With a lot riding on the outcome- the level of intensity was definitely set on HIGH- I was hanging on every word. I soooo need the next book…. STAT!!!
I really recommend reading the previous book before starting on this one as this isn’t a standalone story, with the storyline bridging from the first book to this one. There is also a Prequel, which will add even more texture and provide important backstory. I loved that this book builds on what we already know, adding more facets to an already intriguing story.
Brilliant!!

Thank you, Naomi Valkyrie!

I loved this book. It is the second book in this series which I highly suggest reading to help you enjoy this series more. It is great seeing where the characters come from and where they are now. I have read every one of this author’s books, I think this is among my favorites by her. It is a shorter story that I found to be full of action and kept me turning pages fast. Xenobia is back in this book with determination to prove to everyone that she is not like their previous leader. What will happen when a blood den along with some enemies is found? Will it produce memories that are a solution or will they just haunt her? This is such a fast paced story that I lost track of time reading it. The details made it fun, easy and entertaining to read. I highly recommend picking up this book and others by this author today.

5 +++++ Stars

I must mention before anything else that this genre is NORMALLY not my chosen genre, but this author has taken this to a new level for me and I’m so invested in this whole story and in all of these characters to a point that I already want to go back and read all again. Real life didn’t exist while I read this book. It was leftovers for supper and less sleep than normal. Phenomenal job!!

There are a lot of people to keep track of in this book, a lot of moving parts to keep straight. What Miss Valkyrie did with the different chapters and the many different POV’s allowed me to connect to each character in a way that made this story that much better for me. I was so engrossed in every page that I did have to force myself to slow down so that I could keep everyone and everything compartmentalized. Once I did that and focussed on every word it was, simply put, completely amazing.

This part picks up a little bit after book 1 ended and I’m not going into too much of the storyline because I will not give away anything that will take away the enjoyment of experiencing this story except to say…I would NOT attempt reading this as a standalone, it wont work. You wont understand some of what happens or feel the impacts without book 1. I’ve sat and thought about who my favorite character is next to Xen of course and I can not come up with a favorite besides maybe Matt, he makes me smile. I just love the family feel and the loyalty portrayed in this story.

I can not wait for the next book in this series, the twist in this book was a complete game changer for me and the path Xen has decided to take could make things even more interesting.
