Two Twisted Crowns by Rachel Gillig

I went from incorrectly thinking I might not enjoy One Dark Window to finding a new favourite fantasy author with Two Twisted Crowns.

Synopsis

This sequel picks up immediately where the first book left off. In order to cure the kingdom of the dark magic plaguing it, Ravyn and Elspeth, along with the Nightmare, must find the Twin Alders card before Solstice.

Review of Two Twisted Crowns

We also get to learn more about Elm from his POV. He and Ione made up for the lack of pages from Elspeth’s perspective. They had such great banter and romantic tension. Aside from the romantic banter, there was also a teasing sense of humour, which helped balance the darker themes. Sometimes, with multiple POVs, I will prefer one over another, but with this book, I found each one to be as compelling as the next.

As with ODW, this book draws you in immediately with the rich atmosphere and fascinating storytelling. Without being subject to info-dumping, the reader learns more about the Nightmare and Providence cards.

It’s safe to say I’ll read whatever Rachel Gillig graces us with next.
