Synopsis:
If there’s one thing Mare Barrow knows, it’s that she’s different.
Mare Barrow’s blood is red — the color of common folk — but her Silver ability, the power to control lightning, has turned her into a weapon that the royal court tries to control.
The crown calls her an impossibility, a fake, but as she makes her escape from Maven, the prince — the friend — who betrayed her, Mare uncovers something startling: She is not the only one of her kind.
Pursued by Maven, now a vindictive king, Mare sets out to find and recruit other Red-and-Silver fighters to join in the struggle against her oppressors.
But Mare finds herself on a deadly path, at risk of becoming exactly the kind of monster she is trying to defeat.
Will she shatter under the weight of the lives that are the cost of rebellion? Or have treachery and betrayal hardened her forever?
First of all I LOVE the cover of this book, it makes you wonder what is going to happen in the story, at least it does for me. I think it’s a brilliant follow up cover from Red Queen. Now I’m waiting because I need to see what happens to Mare and Cal, and if Maven really has lost his mind completely.
He really did lost his mind, right?!!! I’m still not over what happened in Red Queen, I’m really excited to see what’s coming next! And this cover is gorgeous 🙂
I’m still not over it either, I want to see Mare take Maven down.
The cover is dazzling!
It is. It’s pretty amazing to look at.
I still haven’t read the first one but i definitely want to read this too!
I am going to re-read Red Queen before this one comes out.
Oh, wow, I didn’t realize it had a title or a cover. Awesome!
It hasn’t been out long, but I was surprised to see it reveled.
I still need to read the Red Queen! I hope you enjoy the second book! I love the covers too 😀

Thanks, the Red Queen was amazing, I’m sure this one will be as well.
Yes, this needs to come out now. I totally wanted it as well.
Grace @ Books of Love
I wish it was out now, not sure how I’m going to wait till February to read it.
Great pick! I’ve heard awesome things about Red Queen but I still haven’t read it.

The covers for this series are fantastic! I hope you enjoy.
