Despite making it through the land of Rasha and gaining three of the Foreigners, Ringzette still has a long way to go before she can call it quits. Now entering the land of the Wielders, Ringzette learns far more than she ever imagined – and wishes she hadn’t.
The world she has known her whole life is shaken as she learns more about the people who’ve been separated from her tribe for decades. Her mentality is constantly tested along with the bonds she has formed with her comrades. New enemies appear. Fights persist. Tension rises. Deaths occur. And betrayals are made.
Ringzette isn’t sure she’s cut out for this, but continues forward for the sake of protecting those she cares about…including the brother she still has yet to find. As she gets further caught up in the battle between the Foreigners and the Terrestrials and closer to the one behind the strings, Ringzette starts to realize that she wasn’t given this mission by default. She may not be as normal as she thinks…
L.C. Perry is a young Black bi aromantic/grey-ace author who’s both socially awkward and distractingly imaginative. She has a BA in Creative Writing from Emory University and is a proud binge-watcher of anime and horror movies. She also knows too many Spongebob quotes, can’t dance to save her life, and has an unhealthy obsession when it comes to vanilla almond milk and caramel cake. Her goal as a writer is to continue writing YA while elevating underrepresented voices. Her areas of expertise are the Fantasy, Dystopian and Contemporary genres for the YA audience. When she isn’t writing, reading, or binge-watching, she’s visualizing original stories inside her head—with the help of music, of course.
I felt this was an interesting turn of events in this second installment in this series. This is the second book I've reviewed in this series and I thought the beginning was better than in the first book since the dialogue drew me in from the start, but in a different and refreshed way than the first which don't get wrong the dialogue in it from the start was quite intriguing and did keep my interest. But the appeal of this second book was more in depth because I was able to get to know the characters more on a totally different level.
If you thought the first book was exciting, wait until you read this one! More characters, more surprises, and a whole lot of action! :) I hope you all enjoy!
