Another excellent story; However, I did not enjoy this one as much as the first book.
Alice and Hatcher continue on their adventures. They are in search for Hatcher's his daughter, Jenny, and along they way they get caught up on a battle between sisters and lovers and a whole lot of stolen magic. There are sad bits with character deaths and he burning of green, lush valleys. And a village has had most of their children stolen.
Alice comes into her own in this story. She learns more about herself and gains more confidence. And this is the one time where a love story is going on in the background of a horror/fantasy story and I don't mind. I have no idea if Alice and Hatcher will finally get it together, but I am rooting for them.
The story was good and had twists and turns, it just wasn't quite as good as the first book in the series. It's the curse of the sequel perhaps. Either way I will continue with the series when the next book is released to see where adventure leads Alice and Hatcher next.
