Two Twisted Crowns by Rachel Gillig
5.0
What a sequel!! I adore this duology, it's fun, absorbing and swoon-worthy!
Two Twisted Crowns hits the ground running and never really stops. It's full of action, adventure and some top-tier tension-filled romance!
The plot and lore expand upon what we learned in One Dark Window without overly complicating it.
I already loved the dual magic system and the backstory/history which is revealed in Two Twisted Crowns. It is unique and interesting how different yet linked the magics are. The card concept is *chefs kiss* and I love anything relating to a witch in the woods!
I'm obsessed with these characters. The introduction of Elm's POV was perfection in my eyes. I was living for his and Ione's plot line and romance. It worked seamlessly with the main plot line following the Nightmare/Elpbeth, Ravyn and Co on on their adventure.
The Nightmare is of course a stand-out. He is such an eerie and mysterious character while also bringing excellent comic relief with his short temper and one-liners.
While I'm sad Elspeth's story is at an end and The Shepherd King duology is now complete, I have enjoyed every second of this adventure and am excited to see what Rachel Gillig releases next!
