Summary: Great Middle Book
Review: "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.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: As Good As the First
Review: Another deeply satisfying Nora trilogy continues with Book 2, which is the story of Dana, one of the three very modern Pennsylvania women who find themselves on an ancient Celtic quest complete with gods and goddesses, ancient curses, and the like.

As readers of the first book know, the first key was found by Mallory, and it's now Dana's turn to find the second key, one of the three that must be found to free the souls of three entrapped goddesses. Sound corny? Yes...but not when Nora writes it! That is her great gift, as her fans know all too well. So along we go with Dana, and talk about pressure: She's about to lose her job; she's fighting unwanted romantic feelings about an old lover; and she has only 28 days to find the key or let down three goddesses and two women who have become her best friends overnight.

I could not put this book down, anymore than I could the first, and am horrified to see I have to wait several weeks for the final book in the trilogy! This is the perfect read for the holiday season; put your feet up, pour a lovely cup of something warm, and enjoy. Ten stars!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: KEY OF LIGHT
Review: AS ALWAYS, READING A NORA ROBERTS BOOK IS LIKE RELAXING IN AN OVERSTUFFED CHAIR IN A LOVELY ROOM WITH A BREAHTAKING VIEW. I AM AN OBSESSED READER AND WILL READ JUST ABOUT ANYTHING. HOWEVER, STARTING A NORA ROBERTS BOOK IS LIKE NOTHING ELSE. ANOTHER TRILOGY IS SO EXCITING. THOSE ARE HER BEST WORK BY FAR. HER RESEARH IS AS FLAWLESS AND HER WRITING. I DO NOT KNOW HOW SHE WRITES THE VOLUME SHE DOES, BUT I HOPE SHE KEEPS IT UP FOR MANY YEARS.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: keeps getting better!!
Review: Book #2 in the new "Key" series.

The story is said that a Celtic God fell in love with a mortal woman and brought her into his world. They were married and had three daughters. But an evil Celtic God didn't like this and cast a spell against the daughters and locked their souls away in a glass box. The box can only be opened by three keys by the hands of three mortal women.

Three woman come together and are asked if they want to take on this quest and are each given twenty-five thousand dollars, but if they succeed they will each get a million dollars. Each woman must find her key within 28 days.

Malory has found the first key, the key of light and has also found love. Now it's Dana's turn. She will have the help of her friends and the help of an old love Jordan Hawke that broke her heart. She doesn't want to give him the time of day. Jordan knows what the evil God Kane will do to stop Dana from finding the second key and Jordan will do everything in his power to keep her safe.

This book was a little sad...Although Jordan left Dana on a whim, he was trying to escape this past and make the present a better one...it was very hard losing his mother the way she died and it tore at him inside and out....You can really feel the pain and heartache...

It's a supernatural story of legends and magic and love. Very exciting and intense....can't wait from #3!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I adore Nora Roberts' Trilogies...
Review: especially the magical ones. I don't care how often she writes these types of characters, I enjoy them. NR is never better than when she writes these types of books - romance with magic and mystery. IMO "Knowledge" is even better than "Light" and I can't wait for "Valor". The lead characters, Dana and Jordon, have such wonderful chemistry, the setting was beautiful and the touch of mystery & magic made this book so pleasurable. I just feel good when I read her books.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: READ THIS TRILOGY
Review: Excellent writing in this trilogy. My only problem is I found it before all three books are out so now I have to wait for the last book :( If that is my only problem then thats not so bad. I just love these women and their men - I hope the last book is as good as the first two.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good-but Nora recycles too many plot lines...
Review: Got the first and second Keys for Christmas and as much as I love them both-am tired of Nora using the same plot lines over and over!In this book-Jordan and Dana are practically the same as Sam and Mia from the Three Sisters Trilogy!The mythology thing was done before also-in hrt Jewels of the sun trioligy.Flynn from the first book is a babe,though. =)And Rowena and Pitte are a fascinating couple!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Not a Nora Roberts book
Review: I am a huge Nora Roberts book and have read nearly everything she's written. This series does NOT read like it was written by Nora Roberts at all ... the writing styles are very different. I wouldn't be surprised if she used a ghost writer; there's just too much that doesn't seem like typical Roberts. The books themselves are OK, but not nearly as enjoyable as other Roberts' stuff. Stick to her earlier work.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It Only Gets Better....
Review: I am not normally attracted to Nora Roberts' books, but the Key Trilogy was the BEST. (I am definitely going to take another look at the Nora Roberts' books that I have passed by!)

This series DOES need to be read in sequence though and I would HIGHLY recommend buying all three together because you will not be able to wait to read the next one.

In so many series, only one of the books is good. At the end of each book, I thought - "There is no way that the next book can be better than this." In every case, the next book exceeded my expectations and the characters and plots only got better.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Better than the first!
Review: I enjoyed this book even more than the first one, Key of Light. I was imediately drawn into the main character & I actually cried twice! The next book in the series is going to have a tough time competing w/ this one!
