I loved the first in the series, Warrior Beautiful. It ended on a cliffhanger and I was really excited to pick up the sequel. It did not disappoint. All the things that I enjoyed in the first book were here: the tension between Scout and Trey, Scouts's love for her sister, the fun snarky banter between Scout and her battle unicorn Ashra (the unicorns are wicked fierce in this) the awesome fighting scenes (which I would love to see on the big screen--seriously, they're that imaginative and well written), and a new element, Scout's dancing. I didn't like the reason she had to dance, but Wendy wrote the sequences in a way that made me see what Scout was doing and I liked that a lot. One of my favorite scenes is when two lovers from Paradesos see each other again after 600 years. Worth the price of the book right there. It ends on another cliffhanger, but that just makes me excited for what's coming.
