Spellmaker
by Charlie N. Holmberg
I just finished Part 2 of the Spellbreaker duology and I must say I feel like it was left unfinished. A couple of things were introduced in the last chapter and were left unanswered. I want to know what happens... but it's a duology. I wouldn't complain if a third book was written though.
Part 2 follows Elsie and Bacchus as they try to determine the motives of the "bad guy" from the first book and put a stop to the misdeeds. However, no one can seem to locate this person anywhere. There are some little adventures along the way, but most of the action happens at the end of the book. Most of the story focuses on Elsie and Bacchus as they further develop their romance but Elsie questions EVERYTHING, which gets to be a bit annoying after awhile. There's a few new characters but the roles are very minor. All in all, I thought this book concluded the story nicely but it seemed a bit more focused on the romance instead of the magical aspects that I enjoyed from the first book.
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for letting me read an ARC of this book!
