Seiran Rou did the unthinkable to save his own life—he killed someone with magic. Now he’s haunted by the deed, and his internal troubles are ripping apart his newly strengthened relationship with Gabe. And the Dominion still wants him to toe the line and produce an heir.
After receiving threatening e-mails, phone calls, and vandalism that all seem to stem from another dead man from Sei’s tormented youth, Matthew Pierson, Sei thinks he’s going crazy and realizes he needs help. He turns to a Dominion-recommended psychiatrist.
But the past has already dug its claws in deep and someone is helping Sei’s old abuser lead him into a trap. Sei knows Gabe will come for him, and he’s ready to accept his love now. Only he doesn’t know if either of them will survive long enough to find a future together.

This book moves much more slowly than the first story. Until the end, there is limited action and all the drama is in Seiran’s head. The first book built Seiran’s world and in the second book Seiran has to learn to live with himself -and his past- in his world.
I like the way Seiran’s relationships are more real in this story. Seiran is no longer a cocky, androgynous playboy. He is needy, withdrawn and pretty difficult to live with. And this is when his relationships prove themselves to be solid and genuine. Readers get to see and understand the love Gabe and Jamie have for Seiran even before Seiran truly understands their commitment to him.
This is Lissa Kasey - her observations of human behaviours, interactions and relationships are as perfect as ever. As always, her characters are intricately drawn. But I missed the action of the first book. I like my heroes to kick butt - and the damaged Seiran in this story needs others to protect him. I like my fantasy to be exciting, and while Matthew haunted Seiran, this was a slow read for me.
I’ve grown too attached to Seiran to let the series go, but I’d like to see Seiran kick some ass in the next installment.

I started this book less than an hour after finishing book one in the series and found the beginning easy to pick up and follow. However, within several chapters I found myself rolling my eyes and putting it down to go do other things. The maturing and growth the main character showed in the first book, as small of a step as it was, seemed to have vanished completely and several of the first few chapters seemed to be a rehash of his own self doubting and confusion with minor mentions of plot moving content. The severity of his neurosis was so distracting and over the top that I found it hard to really care what happened to him or the characters around him. I actually spent a good part of the first half of the book wishing he would stop whining like a middle school kid and deal with his issues. While some of the issues dealt with were severe and seemed to need the hangups, I feel the author may have gone a little overboard on his specific issues without giving him any true movement toward overcoming them for too long.
I managed to force my way through the first half of the book and was happy to find the second half much better than the first. Thankfully, some of the hangups were finally dealt with and worked through and progress was made which made him less irritating and made me want to connect with him again. With any luck, these growth points and progressions will hold through the rest of the series and he won't be back-sliding too severely. Thankfully the minor spelling issues and grammatical mistakes found in the first seemed to be dealt with more intently in this book and it flowed better, despite the whining of the main character. If you can push through the rampant self-loathing of the first half of the book, the second half is well worth it. If book three continues the forward progress, I could see recommending this simply to allow for the rest of the series to be read.

Reclamation A Dominion Novel edition by Lissa Kasey Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
This author has jumped onto my auto buy list all due to this series. In the follow up to Inheritance, Lissa Kasey continues Seiran's story that stands just as strong if not stronger than the first title. With Reclamation Seiran is not only the Pilar but he's a broken man who faces the hardest of obstacles daily. Not even his brother Jamie can save him the harsh words, the looks, the downright meanness from the other oddities of this world. I mean, this poor boy was abused all his life, his mother? Oh please, what a piece of...well you get the picture. She isn't so much seen in this book but it's due to her that he's the mess he is. The chemistry between Seiran and Gabe, his vampire lover is just outstanding. Lissa has created these characters and given them vastly different personalities and fleshed them out so well that I have fallen totally and completely in love with them. Gabe has the patience of Job and he loves, no he adores, no he is totally in love with Seiran and the amazing sacrifices he goes through for his lover just melted my heart.
Seiran is now in counseling by request of the Dominion due to his misadventure from the last story...he also was instructed to teach a class in college as punishment, so the guy has his hands full. Now, if you'll remember he suffers badly from OCD, and he ends up hurting his hands so badly midway through the book that sadly he is in bandages and such well until the end. Seiran is on the road to recovery, but once again, he is haunted by his past. People die all around him, and not the right ones. Then he begins to see his ex, the ass who abused him since the age of eleven and things get worse.
You will need tissue. I'm serious. Just...when you're reading this one, please don't throw your reader...it'll pay off.
And in case you're wondering what order to read this series in here it is Now, I only reviewed the two novels. I did read the shorts in between them and I suggest you do the same

This series and especially book 2 Reclamation are psychological thrillers set in a paranormal world view. Sei is recovering from the attack he suffered in book 1 and is seeing a paranormal psychiatrist, as ordered by his superiors at the Dominion. Remember, Sei is a witch, one of the few male witches to have gone through witch training, and he has very special powers as an earth witch.
I love Gabe, Jamie, and Kelly, who are there to support Sei in his quest for healing and sanity. Is the man who attacked Sei really dead? Did Sei kill him? That action is something that haunts Sei so is he trying to relive the past with a different outcome or is Matthew still after him?
The search for truth may drive Sei even more insane or it may give him the peace he seeks. It’s up to Gabe to make sure Sei is OK, but Sei doesn’t want to put Gabe in danger. This series is a real thriller. I’m looking forward to the next book in the series. Oh, and by the way, the cover of the re-released version of the book is gorgeous!
