Reviewer: BexRating 4 out of 5 FairiesI thoroughly enjoyed Alicia Michaels' latest installment in her The Lost Kingdom of Fallada series. It was a great read and was once again a book that was well-crafted and easy to absorb. The main character Jocylene was a character that I enjoyed from the start. I was able to empathize with her and readily wanted to follow her journey.Her journey, just as book one, is a pretty epic one. The author creates such a vivid fantasy world, it's impossible not to get caught up in it. Also like book one, there is a clear romance running through, yet remarkable and refreshingly, the author doesn't follow the same pattern. She really mixes it up with book two. We are introduced to the strong and determined Rothatin, who is a fierce and loyal warrior. We are also introduced to Eli, a complex, yet utterly gorgeous shifter. Cue fireworks and frustration!I was most definitely left wanting more, yet I was also a little frustrated with the development of the relationships between the characters. There's a major build up with an inconclusive ending. yes, this left me wanting more, but it also left me feeling a little disappointed.I eagerly await book three.Disclosure: This book was provided by the author in exchange for an HONEST and not necessarily positive review.
