Verse Book 2: The Second Gate by Sam Beck

5.0

Fife's plans to become an expert swordsmith are interrupted when he meets Neitya, an extraordinary girl unlike any he's ever met before...primarily because of her horns and amnesia. Worryingly, she seems akin to the monstrous Vel who roams the countryside. but when Fife is attacked by the Vel, Neitya saves him by using a skill thought to be forever lost to everyone: Magic. Fife and Neitya decide to journey together, seeking the guidance they need to unravel the mystery of her origin.

I loved the two first books of Verse and I cannot wait to know what will happen next ! Everything in it is perfect, from the story, to the characters. I greatly enjoyed the mysterious atmosphere mixing magic and classic Fantasy universe. I loved how the story is unveiled, and how we learn slowly about each character.
