Wiggins has delivered yet another story full of action, magic, and charm! This time, however, she brought a level of darkness to the story, which I much confess I was unprepared for. She certainly wasn’t afraid to tug at the old heartstrings with this one, and while I found the first book thoroughly delightful, this one managed to instill a sense of genuine dread that the first one never gave me. In this one, she quickly establishes that she isn’t afraid to break her readers’ hearts, and in the end, she lives up to that promise.
