I'm a long time follower of the Marechal Chronicles. This latest installment by Aimelie Aames does not disappoint! We pick up on Melisse and the Marechal and delve deeper into this intriguing fantasy world. As with previous parts, this one is well written, highly engaging, and wonderfully plotted.Aames has a real knack for weaving mystery in a fantasy world. We find out more about the character's pasts as their relationship unfolds. What's really interesting is where they're heading, though. New challenges unearth new powers as they separate with one of them journeying to the Alchemist's tower, a cursed place that could mean their doom.As I mentioned, I love the way this story is written. Aames keeps emotions high and realistic, while weaving a convincing fantasy world with plenty of mystery to uncover and evil to overcome. I enjoyed the dark and sensual edge to this story, especially as Melisse moves toward the destiny she seeks.If you like well developed fantasy with a strong splash of steam, pick this up! Aames is truly a wonderful writer.
