Raven Flight by Juliet Marillier


Raven Flight (Shadowfell, #2)Raven Flight

Neryn has finally found the rebel group at Shadowfell, and now her task is to seek out the elusive Guardians, vital to her training as a Caller. These four powerful beings have been increasingly at odds with human kind, and Neryn must prove her worth to them. She desperately needs their help to use her gift without compromising herself or the cause of overthrowing the evil King Keldec.

Neryn must journey with the tough and steadfast Tali, who looks on Neryn's love for the double agent Flint as a needless vulnerability. And perhaps it is. What Flint learns from the king will change the battlefield entirely—but in whose favor, no one knows.

This was an excellent 2nd book! Hooray! I seriously loved it. There wasn't a single time I hated/wanted to shake/was annoyed with a main character, which is HUGE for a 2nd book. The plot progressed, the creatures were charming, the characters were real and flawed and fabulous - I can't wait to read the third. This has so far been an excellent series.

Mom note: As a mother of readers, I also want to make a note to myself (and others if they care) why I would or would not have my children read this book, because honestly, sometimes I forget. This is a YA book, so everything is within YA strictures. Violence: yes; Profanity: none; Sex: no but close
