Similar to the first book. I will withhold opinion until after the trilogy is over, but much of the suspense/resolve is either far to obvious or far too convenient...
The second half of the book was a lot better than the first, especially with that ending.
4.5 stars, Such an awesome instalment, this series is definitely one of my favourites, Elisa is just so relatable...for a Sorceress Queen. I love it, and highly recommend. Now to try to convince myself not to immediately read the third and final book...

First, I need to mention how awesome the cover is. I’m borrowing the Hardcover from the library, and the jewel is raised out of the book and it’s all very shiny and pretty. I loved the look of the first book too, but this one is even better with the colours.
The characters are awesome, I love how strong and determined Elisa is even though she sometimes is really scared or unsure and in need of someone to lean on. As the Queen, she now has to deal more with decisions than before that can have good or bad repercussions, and putting her personal wants aside. In this they urge her to find a husband, not long after her previous one died. She starts to fall for Hector (and who doesn’t love knights in armour) but there are so many doubts about feelings and she still has much to do in regards to the Godstone and what her destiny is.
This book is of course filled with adventure, cunning and devious plots. One Conde wants to overthrow her and it doesn’t help that the people are still afraid and riled up from the last attacks on the city. The only way to save everything is for her to embark on a dangerous journey to find a place of power. The journey was pretty awesome and I loved how much she learns through this whole book, and how much space is still left for her to grow even more in the next one.
If you love fantasy I definitely suggest you give this series a try, and start with the first book if you haven’t already!

Even better than the first one! And Hector gets a 10 out of 10 *swoon*
This book was amazing. I think it was a wonderful 2nd book in the series. I absolutely loved it. I can't wait for the next book! If you loved the first one you won't be disappointed at all. Elisa remains a steady character that we can love and still surprise and amaze us. <3 <3 <3
