Resumen del Editor

In the wake of Silversaar’s death, the magical restraint on Malachai’s power has been broken and the knowledge of how to use runic magic has been restored to the Baldomar people.

Far from her elvish homeland, Aeryn Haranae works alongside Josef Erlander to take up the responsibility given to them by Silversaar. If the past and whispers from afar are any indication, Malachai is certain to continue his campaign to subjugate the realm and eradicate the Baldomar. As she learns to live and lead among the Baldomar, it’s difficult to imagine how a small village of farmers and craftsmen can defy Malachai and prevail.

Old and new alliances form as Aeryn and Josef set out once again, this time to build a coalition to fight Malachai. Their efforts lead them into new lands, and the stark realization that the enemy is more formidable than imagined.

When Aeryn realizes triumph is likely to be as tragic and bleak as failure, she secretly strikes a dangerous bargain to alter the trajectory of the war. Freedom for those she loves comes at a cost.

Not As Good as the First

I received a free audio version of this book for review; all opinions are my own.
I really enjoyed the narrator while listening to this second entry into The Silversaar Legacy. Her cadence was much better as the narrator shed her stiltedness. As before, she did great giving each character their own voices.
I found this book a lot slower than the first. I felt like there was less action and character development than in the first entry. But there were things I did like. I really enjoyed the authors' version of dragons and the magic they possessed. I think my favorite part is when the main character goes home and makes true peace with her past.
