"Bryce Quinlan and Hunt Athalar are trying to get back to normal―they may have saved Crescent City, but with so much upheaval in their lives lately, they mostly want a chance to relax. Slow down. Figure out what the future holds.
The Asteri have kept their word so far, leaving Bryce and Hunt alone. But with the rebels chipping away at the Asteri’s power, the threat the rulers pose is growing. As Bryce, Hunt, and their friends get pulled into the rebels’ plans, the choice becomes clear: stay silent while others are oppressed, or fight for what’s right. And they’ve never been very good at staying silent.
In this sexy, action-packed sequel to the #1 bestseller House of Earth and Blood, Sarah J. Maas weaves a captivating story of a world about to explode―and the people who will do anything to save it."--Goodreads blurb
After looking forward to this second book so much, it just fell a bit flat for me. I really liked the character development between Bryce and Ruhn and other friends, and there were some good twists, but this second installment lacked the emotion of the first. I did like that we got chapters from different character viewpoints and new magical abilities were revealed that set up the next book in the series. While this one suffered a sophomore slump, the third book will be on my must-read.
