I wanted to really enjoy this read, but it didn’t meet the expectations elicited by the first novel. While I really wanted to like the characters, it seemed to take the majority of the book for the MCs to get become more one dimensional. I will note that the plot line had some interesting developments, some of which were intriguing. I enjoyed the addition of new characters, such as the blue witches. I also wish there would have been more development between Rua and Remy, but this was a missing component.
