What a magical tale!  I absolutely loved the first book in this series and was so glad to see a second book in the works.  Let me just say that Happy Dances were witnessed at my house the day this was first emailed to me as an ARC.  This book is not truly a prequel to Give Me, nor is it a sequel.  Without giving away too many spoilers, it is intertwined within Give me.  That being said, you could easily read it without having read Give me, but I think reading Give Me first will add to your reading experience.I do not even know where to begin on the awesomeness of this book.  I love all things Fae, so I loved seeing more of the Fae realm we were first introduced to in Give Me.  I also loved how this book had Fae and Wyrds, and Goblins, and humans.  Their interacts with each other made for some fun and some not so fun scenes.  I especially loved the relationships James had.  I will not spoiler them, but the way they were written made me happy.I think one of Rigel's gifts is her ability to tell a story through multiple time periods. This gift shined (shone?) especially bright during this tale, which spanned time and realms while it intertwined with Give Me.  I am excited to see where this series goes.  In my opinion, Max and Cissa are characters we need to learn a lot more about ;).This is definitely an adult book due to the content, but I did not find there to be anything over the top or explicit when it came to the sex and violence.  Basically, it passed the "I would not be embarrassed for my mother to know I read this" test.
