As a fan of Ms. Potocki's novels, I was eagerly looking for forward to this, the second installment of the Addune' series. I'm happy to announce that, once again, the author (who I've dubbed 'The Mistress of Mayhem') did not disappoint!Addune' 2 The House of Cards picks up right where book one left off with our conflicted heroine, Miranda, struggling to come to grips with her unwanted indoctrination into vampire life. From there the story takes off on a whirlwind of action, emotions, and clever dialogue that will leave you breathless. I can honestly say that once I started reading, I literally could not stop until I reached the last mist-shrouded, reality-blurring, blood-soaked, hand-wringing, emotion-draining, plot-twisting page!Addune' 2 captures the true spirit of what a sequel should be. The writing was eloquent, and the overall book well-edited. The characters, both new and old, were endearing, the various locations visited throughout the plot intriguing, and the ending left me primed for part 3 of the trilogy which I pray is coming soon!
