About the book

In the captivating sequel to The Darkening, Vesper and Dalca face their fiercest battle yet to save their besieged city from the Great King and his ominous army.

'Will ensnare you from the first page' Chloe Gong on The Darkening

Vesper Vale sacrificed everything to save her city. But when she awakens after three years as a vessel of The Great Queen, she finds her home beset by sinister forces - and herself revered as a goddess.

The Great King and his army of lightstruck - once regular citizens who are now controlled by an ominous light - have besieged the city. And as she fights to rescue them, a chasm is growing between her and Dalca, the prince she swore never to love.

To save her city again, Vesper will have to face the power most outside her control - the goddess within.

    After book 1 in this dilogy left me fairly intrigued but not hooked for the story, I enjoyed this second part much more.

    I love the concept of the King and Queen battling via humans, choosing their own means of good and evil. And after the events of book 1 - which were basically wrapped up nicely - this story felt like a whole new and fresh take on the world. A lot of ideas in this world were truly unique and managed to surprise me time after time. All in all this series is not a highlight for me, but very enjoyable and worth a read. 4/5 stars Thank you @netgalley and @hodderbooks for the eARC! #Lightstruck #Netgalley #Bookstagram
