Publisher's summary

Dark forces are on the rise in this sweeping sequel to The Black Witch by critically acclaimed author Laurie Forest.

Elloren Gardner and her friends were only seeking to right a few wrongs when they rescued a Selkie and freed a military dragon. The last thing they expected was to be thrust into a realm-wide underground resistance against Gardnerian conquest.

While the Resistance struggles to fight back against the harsh rulings of the Mage Council, more and more Gardnerian soldiers descend upon the University…led by none other than Lukas Grey, now commander of the nearby military base. Though Elloren tries to keep him at arm's length, Lukas is determined to tie himself to her, still convinced that she is the heir to the power of the Black Witch, a legacy of magic that will decide the future of all Erthia. As his own magic calls out to her, seeking to awaken a dark force within, Elloren finds it more and more difficult to believe that she's truly powerless, as her uncle always claimed.

As she navigates the dangerous line of insurgency, Elloren must find a way to stay true to what she knows is right and protect everyone she loves...even if that means protecting them from herself.

Decent Second

This book seemed loooong on occasion with almost too much time and detail spent on certain parts and not enough in others. But overall it was a decent second installment and I think provided much needed insight and world building that will be important building blocks for the third book.
The narration was spot on for this one as well as the first.
Because I’m now invested in these characters and the struggles they’re facing I will definitely be reading on, and am interested in seeing the growth of the main character as her world views continue to expand and she comes into the power that has been eluded to in the first and second books.

Amazing story! The voice fit so perfectly too.

I love this world! The story is phenomenal and the characters are beautiful. There are some really heartbreaking moments but necessary to show how scary the world is becoming. The narrator did a fantastic job bringing the characters to life.
