The first book of this series was a surprise to me, so I went into this book, very hesitantly, because it’s the second book of the series, and sometimes they can be boring. But this one did not disappoint!

There is a new mystery for Signa to solve in order to save her uncle, and she is going to do everything in her power to do so. There’s some new magic involved, changing relationships, and new characters which which makes this installments so fun to read.

We learn a little bit more about Signa in this book which I enjoyed. There were a lot of challenges that she had to face and tests that she had to overcome. I really enjoyed her relationship with Death develop in this book. I loved that they were in, however, I wish that we got to see a little more of them. Nonetheless, every romance scene that they had was spoon worthy and I loved it.  

Blythe surprisingly has a much bigger role in this book that I did not expect. She has her own perspective and I’m not not gonna lie in the beginning I was not a huge fan of it. But her character grows a lot in this book and by the end of it I really appreciate it her point of view.

There is a new character player in this series, and he is probably my favourite edition of this book. He is your definition of a morally gray character, and there are moments I hate them and moments I love him. I am very intrigued to see his character growth in the next book. 

Overall, I devoured this book. I loved every minute of it and even though I wanted more, it did not taint my enjoyment of the book. Although a lot of the plot points, and the ending, felt obvious and predictable, there were lots of surprises that kept me on the edge of my seat. I am excited to see where the next book is going to go. The author has set up the series in a way that I have a feeling. The next book is going to feel like a brand new series and I cannot wait.
