While directed more towards teen girls, who doesn't enjoy a Xena-like character creating her own destiny? I for one enjoyed the book so much that I immediately acquired the third book! Totally Team Iwan!!! #fangirl

Great second book! I was getting a little annoyed by Branwen in the beginning (her getting all doubtful and whatnot). I LOVED BLODWEDD - such a great character and her sacrifice brought tears to my eyes. The final battle scene was very Lord of the Rings to be LOL. So glad she now has a support team and can't wait to see these characters develop and their journey continue!

Ohhhhhhh, I can't wait to read the next book! Wait, I think I should go back and reaf the first one before I go any farther.
I picked thus book up from a Dollar Tree because I had finished my traveling book. There wasn't a big selection, and this one had an interesting cover. After it sat for almost a year on my shelf, I decided it was time to take it out and read it. The first few chapters were kinda slow, but that is probably the case only because I didn't read the first book. After that, I really started getting into the story and I'm eager to see how this story ends.

I get bored easily, so I kinda skimmed through the book waiting for action. Second book I still have no idea what's going on, and I don't think the characters either to... Some ones needs to explains things ASAP or we both are doomed.

So now that Branwen finally has accepted her destiny, she has to follow it.
There is just one problem. She excepts the Shining Ones to make it easy for her. It seems that it some parts, she wants the Shining Ones to do everything. Then in other parts, she uses her brain and we see how smart she is. She needs the Shining Ones for help but not to do everything for her. She can do that.
I like that we don't get to see most of Branwen's destiny, only parts. That way there is a little mystery going on. Where is she and her companions going next? How is her destiny going to play out?
Also, there is the epic battle in this one as well.
There were some revelations going on. I have to say that I wasn't surprised and I was waiting for it. But it was still pretty good book.
Also, the romance is there in little pieces, which suits this series very well. It will be interesting to see what happens in "The Emerald Flame" within the romance area.
Good second book. I hope this keeps up in the third!

Again, it was ok. The characters were still flat. The story was still interesting, but predictable. I finished the trilogy because I had the third book checked out of the library already. Otherwise I wouldn't have bothered.
