Loved this sequel! The ending of ODW had me panicking for what book 2 would be.
When I tell you I’ll never overlook a sneaky, kinda mean, ginger prince again. I didn’t think much of Elm until this book & then I fell in love. Move over Ravyn, Prince Elm is the guy.
Anyway, like the first book, the magic system is very unique & well-established. I thought the Spirit of the Woods was intriguing & was glad to see an appearance in this book.
The best part of this duology, in my opinion, is the King, Maiden, Monster storyline with the Nightmare & Elspeth. The Shepherd King is made out to be the monster in Elspeth’s mind, a parasite & unwelcome voice. But as the books go on, you grow to love him & understand his adoration & love for Elspeth. He becomes a misunderstood, but beloved character for me.
