Hey there! Fire, here, with my review of:
As a sequel to the astounding novel Nevermore, I just HAD to read Enshadowed.
It basically starts off precisely after Nevermore
ends, with Isobel realizing that Varen isn’t “at home” with her. This book
starts off a little slow because Isobel is trying to adjust and deal with what
is going on and there isn’t much “Isobel and Varen” time.
The suspense, however, was killer! I hung on to every word throughout
the book! I was slightly disappointed to find that the overall structure was
very close to Nevermore’s and held
very little of its own content, leaving us in another heart wrenching
predicament. Many other reviews state that they felt like this book was unnecessary
for readers to know what’s going on but I feel like this book was an important
step in the Isobel/Varen relationship. Enshadowed
also seems to show more into the depths of Varen’s soul than we saw in Nevermore.
It’s true that if you
wanna save time, you can read the last few chapters of Enshadowed and know everything you need to know for the third book
currently in progress of being written, but Kelly’s poetic similarities in language
to Edgar Allan Poe’s writing style never fails to entice me. She spins a world
of fantastical imagination that has me coming back for more. So yes, I
definitely suggest that any fan of Nevermore
read Enshadowed! And to keep an
open mind at the end of the book, because it’s not over! The conclusions on its
way and I think that it will make up for all the waiting!
