True love takes a twisted turn in the second book of this modern gothic romance trilogy channeling the dark brilliance of Edgar Allan Poe.While Varen remains a prisoner in a perilous dream world where the terrifying stories of Edgar Allan Poe come to life, Isobel travels to Baltimore to confront the dark figure known throughout the world as the Poe Toaster. This man, the same man who once appeared to Isobel in her dreams and abandoned her in Varen'’s nightmare world, holds the key to saving Varen.
But when Isobel discovers a way to return to this dream world, she finds herself swept up in a realm that not only holds remnants of Edgar Allan Poe's presence, but has also now taken on the characteristics of Varen's innermost self. It is a dark world of fear, terror, and anger.
When Isobel once more encounters Varen, she finds him changed. And now Isobel must face a new adversary—one who also happens to be her greatest love.
My Review:
I really enjoyed reading this book! It was a terrific sequel, though it could've done with a few more prompts from the last book, just because of the big gap between the publishing of the first book and this one, because there were a few moments where I didn't know what was going on!
This book was darker then the previous one, and we mostly had Isobel's POV, but there were a few Varen ones, which was really great, seeing as they were apart for most of the book, and the brief time they were together, it didn't end well!
Especially since he thought that it wasn't real, so he treated her pretty crappy, and so she didn't get him out, and that really sucked! But that just means that there's something to do, something happening for the next book, yeah!
And what with the journey that Isobel had to go on just to get him in this book, taking up most of it, well, that just means that the next book is going to be even more complicated! I can't wait for that additional time in the world, yeah!
This was a really fantastic book, I enjoyed it so much, and I can't wait for the sequel!
