Much better second book in this YA supernatural series. I can remember reading the firstShimmerspell (The Shimmer Trilogy, #1)and can see how the writer has taken on board the constructive criticism and created better work. The dialogue between the characters is more realistic, the characters have more flair and all without losing the genre of YA. In this book Jensen is finding it hard to determine who her friends and enemies are and as always nothing is as it seems. The end is pretty abrupt, perhaps too much so and the last scenes could be a little less rushed, but there is also an excerpt of the new book to entice the reader to get the third part.I would suggest a prologue for the people who haven't read the first, which means this can be read as a stand alone book without too much confusion.
