Something dark and evil has awakened.... Evie O'Neill has been exiled from her boring old hometown and shipped off to the bustling streets of New York City - and she is pos-i-tute-ly ecstatic. It's 1926, and New York is filled with speakeasies, Ziegfeld girls, and rakish pickpockets. The only catch is that she has to live with her uncle Will and his unhealthy obsession with the occult. Evie worries her uncle will discover her darkest secret: a supernatural power that has only brought her trouble so far.

Story
As a child, Chris Hooper dreamed of monsters. But in deep space, he found only darkness and isolation. Then, on planet LV178, he and his fellow miners discovered a storm-scoured, sand-blasted hell - and trimonite, the hardest material known to man. When a shuttle crashes into the mining ship Marion, the miners learn that there was more than trimonite deep in the caverns. There was evil, hibernating and waiting for suitable prey. Hoop and his associates uncover a nest of Xenomorphs, and hell takes on a new meaning. Quickly they discover that their only hope lies with the unlikeliest of saviors.... Ellen Ripley, the last human survivor of the salvage ship Nostromo.

Excellent Narration!
The story is as mesmerizing as the first one in the series. The characters are well fleshed out and plot flows smoothly. It does take a while for the storyline to build up, but the second half wheezes fast. The descriptions show how much research went into building the world. Highly imaginative, atmospheric, and gripping. Recommended!

Libba Bray & January LaVoy - A Deadly Combination!
This series never disappoints. New characters are introduced. Old characters are explored more. The chemistry amongst these characters is the main reason to read this book. Our favourite diviners grow powerful each day...but the reason behind all this, the main villain is still lurking around, probably waiting. But for what? that is the question that needs to be answered. There is still the origin story to be told. Alot more to come. Can't wait!!
Only problem was that this book was much slower than the first book.

Another Winner from Bray
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes, the prose alone make it worth listening to/reading. The narrator makes the story come alive. There are several parts that seem to drag on endlessly, but that is probably due to my own impatience to get to the end. Now, of course, I'm sad that it is over and so I will have to start again from the beginning and savor it this time, so I'm sure I'll like those parts more the second time around.
What other book might you compare Lair of Dreams to and why?
I really don't know. Obviously it goes well with its prequel, but these novels are in a league of their own, combining YA romance problems, sci-fi, fantasy, and mystery. I loved Bray's debut trilogy, "The Gemma Doyle Trilogy," AND her book "Beauty Queens," AND this series is quickly joining the list. I cannot get enough of her stories.
Which character – as performed by January LaVoy – was your favorite?
Sam Lloyd or Theta Knight
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes, but it is very lengthy, so that is not possible.
Any additional comments?
EVERYONE SHOULD READ THIS SERIES. Unless you're some kind of fuddy-duddy or you just don't like YA fantasy/scifi novels (basically making you some kind of fuddy-duddy).
Also, for fans of Bray's previous Gemma Doyle trilogy there's a tiny easter egg/treat in this second book for us!

Better than the first book
I bought this book primarily on the strength of January LaVoy's performance, and was pleasantly surprised to find that many of the things that annoyed me about the first book were better here: the characters were more interesting, the plot less formulaic, and the ending more concise. I'm cautiously optimistic for the next installment!

Setting the stage for the next two books
I'm looking forward to the resolution of the series, however I felt that Lair of Dreams was written to bring certain characters together and lay the foundation for their respective relationships. I did not enjoy it as much as its predecessor, and I felt that the arc of the overall storyline does not advance enough in the second book to justify turning what could be a trilogy, into a four-book saga.
Overall the book still earns a solid 4.5 stars, if only for the sheer beauty that is Libba Bray's writing.
I am always astounded by Bray's ability to apply current events topics in a way that they can be tied back to real events from past eras, such as the 1920s, making the past or the issues so much more relatable for readers-- and it's not even done in a condescending way, like some authors who shall remain unmentioned *cough* "James Patterson" *cough, cough*

Libba Bray at Her Finest
Libba Bray knows how to tell a story, or, in the case of The Diviners and Lair of Dreams, layers of story upon story. The second in the Diviners series, Lair of Dreams eerily mimics the climate in the US today: the fear of immigrants, the authoritarian views of many, the corruption. Evie and Sam and the rest of the characters pull the reader into a world of yesterday, while, all at the same time, connecting fluidly with the present-day America.
As far as the performance of the novel, January Lavoy was spectacular. I don't believe I've enjoyed an Audible book as much as I've enjoyed this one; her performance brought the book to life!

A seamless blend of tenderness, humor, and extreme scarey! I couldn't stop listening and ignored everything and everyone around me. And now, the long, impatient wait until the next book. Oh yes, Libba leaves us with another cliffhanger!
(surprise cameo in this, too, but listen for it; it's a flash in the pan.)

I should have read it long ago
I listened to The Diviners a couple of years ago and really liked it, I thought the story was interesting and refreshing, I loved the 20s setting and the narrator is just marvelous!
The ambiance January LaVoy generates while telling the story is everything.
As I'm not a native English speaker and I didn't remember everything from the first book, it took me a while to absorb what was happening and to get into the story. But once I started to pay more attention I was dragged into it.
Lair of dreams was an eerie book and a creepy one. I certainly recommend it and I will continue on with the series. So bad that the audio books are so expensive!!
I also want to highlight that it brings some important issues that are concerning as for the current times too. It was disheartening to hear about race discrimination in this book and realize that nothing much has change. We need to focus on this stuff. This book portrays discrimination toward Chinese people mainly, but it also towards POC and portrays homophobia. To show that in a book set in 1927 is accurate, the sad part is that almost a 100 years later we're fighting against the same kind of stuff.
OK, that was me letting go some feelings out.
Just read this series! It's so good 🤩

Great book--even greater narration!
What did you like best about this story?
I liked that there were a diverse group of characters portrayed with different viewpoints and experiences. I also liked that Bray did not shy away from the bad elements of the time period--the rampant and accepted racism, homophobia, etc.
What does January LaVoy bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
She brings the characters to life with their own unique voices.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes.
Any additional comments?
I highly recommend this to any history fans or any fans of the supernatural.

Best Book in the Series
I absolutely love the voice acting and narration by January LaVoy
This story picks up where the first left and clearly continues developing the future books. We find learn about Henry and new friend Ling's ability to dream walk. Obviously dreams are torturing the city and the Diviners are caught right in the middle of it all.
At the start I felt that the equal opportunity checklist was just being completed because of trends to do so. HOWEVER, every minority, sexual orientation, relationship, and disability ADDED to the story. That's how an inclusive cast should look.
Honestly I'd only recommend this series as a duology as this is the strongest book.
1) The Diviners ⭐⭐⭐⭐
2) Lair of Dreams ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
3) Before the Devil Breaks You ⭐⭐⭐
4) King of Crows ⭐

Positivily brilliant!
Oh wow!! So spooky and sensational and just as sassy as book one! The narrator is brilliant. Loved the accents and depth that came with the individual characters.
The tension and chill in this book is real! I was captivating and frightened and entertained!
It starts off slow and the individual character plots often felt disconnected to the main story until the climax, when it all started to come together, and that moment was totally mind blowing!! I truly didn’t expect that!
I’m so excited for the next book!
** Favourites moments: every scene with Evie and Sam - I’m a total simp for it!!
“I’ve spent the last two hours worried that you were bleeding to death in a ditch,” Evie continued. “Now that I know you’re okay, I just want you to be bleeding to death in a ditch.”
“Aww, Lamb Chop, you missed me.”

Enjoyable but the story didn't captivate me
There were a lot of characters in the first book of this series, some I wanted to be explored further and others who I thought should take a back seat. This is very subjective, I understand. But this sequel adds more characters and, I believe, focuses too much on new characters. Our protagonist is missing for large portions of the story. When, actually, her plotline is one of the more interesting parts of the book and should have had more time to be explored.

as good as the first one
this was really good. You got to see more of certain characters, less of others (which wont suit everybody since it's a bit different from the first book). And you get to see more of other characters, not just Eevie which I appreciated. However, I thought the story was a bit jumpy and too long so I had a hard time following. Other than that its interesting as usual, you can barely put it down. I recommend continuing! Also I hate love triangles but maaan lmao, kinda into it.

Beautiful narration, beautiful story.
Firstly, the narrator is extremely talented. At points it felt like I was hearing the story though my own mind, not through a speaker. The voice acting is very well done and could not have been happier with it.
Secondly the book itself is something I never expected, but in a good way. the characters can at times be so frustrating and annoying, but that's because they react and think like real human beings. It was at multiple points I felt like hugging a character as they had a struggle, it strangling Eevee for being oh so annoying in her way.
This is an extremely enjoyable book and am excited to listen to the next.

Loved it so, so much
Lair of Dreams is the sequel to The Diviners by Libba Bray. The Diviners is set in 1920s New York and follows a cast of characters as they become entangled in a series of occult murders and the paranormal.
Warning this review might contain slight spoilers for The Diviners.
By far my favourite aspects of this series are the characters and the setting.
The 1920s New York gives such a great atmosphere to the story and the prejudices of the time are so well contrasted by the diversity of the cast of characters. In this book we focus a lot more on Henry and a new character, Ling, who are able to walk in dreams. Henry was such a sweet character in the first book that I was really excited to follow him more in this story. I also thought the introduction of Ling, as a disabled half Chinese-half Irish character who has a keen interest in science, was a welcome change from most YA protagonists I typically see.
There is still focus on Evie, Sam and Jericho in this book, specifically following Project Buffalo and Jericho's past. There is also a small love triangle going on between these three characters, and while it was slightly frustrating I didn't hate it outright. I absolutely loved every single interaction between Evie and Sam, the witty back-and-forth banter is incredible and their whole hate-to-love thing is one of my favourite tropes, as is the fake dating trope.
Now to the plot. This book focuses quite heavily on dreams and the temptations they offer. This storyline was an interesting idea and I was engaged the whole time. However, it didn't grip me in quite the same way as the plot of the first book and I didn't quite get the same creep factor. That being said, this was still a favourite of mine and I cannot recommend this series enough.
