Glad for the chance to read this 2nd book by Katherine Quinn. I've enjoyed her prose and the way she weaves her fantasy which are quite enthralling at times! In this one, it sure takes on a darker tone when Bash was separated from Margrete. It was definitely a test for both of them and the adventure they endured just to be together in the end was so unexpected. I just can't wait for the last in the trilogy, the conclusion to close this chapter.
