Shadow of Night by Deborah Harkness

5.0

I loved The Discovery of Witches and had high hopes for Shadow of Night. I'm pleased to say they were met and exceeded. Almost all of this books takes place in the past, and between the lush descriptions of the clothing and setting, discovering more about the abilities of all the characters and learning the truths about so many mysteries, it felt like a luxurious journey through history.

Even though it had been a long time since I read the first book, Harkness dropped in just enough hints to catch me up to speed without feeling like a total regurgitation. I can't wait for the third, to see how all the threads will be woven together and to continue my journey with Diana and Matthew.
