If there's one thing Mare Barrow knows, it's that she's different.
Mare's blood is Red - the colour of common folk - but her Silver ability, the power to control lightning, has turned her into a weapon that the royal court tries to control.
The crown calls her an impossibility, a fake, but as she makes her escape from the prince and friend who betrayed her, Mare uncovers something startling: she is not the only one of her kind.
Pursued by the Silver king, Mare sets out to find and recruit other Red-and-Silver fighters to join in the struggle against her oppressors.
But Mare finds herself on a deadly path, at risk of becoming exactly the kind of monster she is trying to defeat. Will she shatter under the weight of the lives that are the cost of rebellion? Or have treachery and betrayal hardened her forever?
The sequel to "The Red Queen" is fascinating and thrilling. Definitely a great follow up to an already amazing storyline. Great plot twists and character development. I didn't think I'd like the sequel as I tend to dislike the following books of a series but this one kept me hooked and before I was even halfway through it, I raced to the bookstore to find the next one.
