Omschrijving
The second book in the compelling Lady Helen trilogy, "a delicious collision of Regency romance and dark fantasy" (Publishers Weekly starred review).
Sequel to The Dark Days Club. The first book was huge-fun, a delicious mash-up of Regency romance and supernatural fantasy.
“In a nutshell: Supernatural Regency Extravaganza “This second book in the lavishly entertaining Lady Helen trilogy - think Jane Austen meets contemporary supernatural sass – more than matches the dark drama of its impressive predecessor … This glorious sequel has it all for fans of fantasy and historical fiction - paranormal clashes, political intrigue, smouldering romance, a handsomely headstrong heroine, and bejewelled historical detail. The writing fizzes with passion and panache throughout, much like Lady Helen herself.”
“This book was a gripping story, with the interesting and complex character of Lady Helen Wrexhall who pulls you through the novel, and the intriguing plot twists and unexpected monsters. I really enjoyed this novel as it had attention to detail and kept me caught up in the story all the way through. It is a good book for people who enjoy historical fiction and fantasy mash-ups!”
“A great read, well researched, and very authentic […] Highly recommend for YA girl readers who are able to tackle a novel of adult length and complexity."
