Summary (from Goodreads):
While
Varen remains a prisoner in the dream-world, Isobel is haunted by his memory.
He appears to her in her dreams and soon, even in her waking life. But is she
just imagining it? Isobel knows she must find a way back to Varen. She makes
plans to go to Baltimore. There, she confronts the figure known throughout the
world as the Poe Toaster—the same dark man who once appeared to Isobel in her
dreams, calling himself "Reynolds."
Isobel
succeeds in interrupting the Toaster's ritual and, in doing so, discovers a way
to return to the dream-world. Soon, she finds herself swept up in a realm which
not only holds remnants of Poe's presence, but has also now taken on the
characteristics of Varen's innermost self. It is a dark world comprised of
fear, terror, and anger.
When
Isobel once more encounters Varen, she finds him changed. With his mind
poisoned by the dream world, he becomes a malevolent force, bent on destroying
all—even himself. Now Isobel must face a new adversary, one who also happens to
be her greatest love.
This is the second book in
the Nevermore series. I was strangely
fascinated and enjoyed the first book (read my review of Nevermore) and am really excited to see what happened next because
of how the first book ended.
Waiting on Wednesday is a
weekly event highlighting exciting upcoming releases. It is hosted by Jill at
Breaking the Spine.
I still have yet to read Nevermore, but it sounds really awesome and this one sounds no less great!
ReplyDeleteI haven't read the first book, but I didn't realize the series was so dark, which I like. I'll have to look into this further. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds good.
ReplyDeleteHappy reading

I still need to read Nevermore! I can't wait to get started on the series! :)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy! your read sounds good.
ReplyDeleteCome by and see mine and my giveaways.
I don't know if I am gonna read this or not. I think I am the only person I know that didn't like Nevermore. I really wanted to love it, but couldn't get into it. I wish I knew what it was that I missed while I was reading, cause I had to have missed something for everyone to want the sequel so bad.
