Summary

In the luscious, dark conclusion to the series that began with One Dark Window, Elspeth must face the consequences of what she's wrought - perfect for fans of Hannah Whitten's For the Wolf and A Court of Thorns and Roses.

Elspeth and Ravyn have gathered most of the twelve Providence Cards, but the last, and most important one remains to be found: The Twin Alders.

If they are going to find it before the Solstice and cure the kingdom of the dark magic infecting it, they will need to journey beyond the dangerous mist-cloaked forest that surrounds their kingdom. 

And the only one who can lead them there is the monster that shares Elspeth's head. The Nightmare. And he's not eager to share any longer.

nice characters, perfect duration of books

it was really good! I loved the duration of the story! only two books so you don't get the chance to get bored! maybe I'd like a bit more depth to the characters but it's a small detail!

Perfect sequel

Love the world building, gothic fantasy and atmospheric writing, great side characters take more of a centre stage which makes it surpass the first book - much quicker pacing and overall great story! The narrator does a great job, can't fault it. Definitely recommend!

How a sequel should be written!

The first book was great but this was incredible! I was hooked throughout!
Characters I did not care much for become the ones I was routing for! The ‘villain’ become a beloved character and the ending, that ending was Beautiful, sad and happy all in one.
