I received an Advanced Reading Copy of this book from the publisher and author in exchange for an honest review. All opinions expressed are my own.
What a ride. I swear this second book had more twists and turns than the first. I found the beginning of the story to be a lot of explaining what happened in the month between the end of bloodleaf and Greythorne, it was a lot of confusion and catching up but after that bumpy beginning, it became really enjoyable.
I think watching Aurelia deal with the fall out of her actions in bloodleaf was very compelling and seeing her struggling with the aftermath made her a much more dynamic character to read about. The ending left me breathless and I cannot wait for the final book!

I struggled so much with this. I can see its merits, but I think I maybe picked it up at the wrong time.

I really liked this, everything was s amazing and the ending was 5 stars. My only problem was that sometimes I was really lost and I didn't understood a thing that happened, but other than that it was really great. My heart bumped a lot, and i did expect most of the things.

I was lucky enough to to get an early copy of Greythorne and I loved it. I loved being back in the world. I love that Aurelia finally started practicing her magic. I loved that we got to know Onal better. That ending?! I can’t believe I have to wait until JUNE to find out what happens in Ebonwilde
