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.
