I loved Arden's first book in this series and couldn't wait to read this one! Book two continues Vasya's journey and I loved it even more than book 1.
I love the fact that she is strong and doesn't want to conform to what society says she needs to do. Vasya is still the wild carefree girl, but she is older and wiser.
Her story takes her over the frozen and sometimes bleak tundra and I felt like I was with her on her journey. Arden wonderfully painted the picture that allowed me to feel a part of the story.
This book weaves intrigue, folklore, romance, history, and so much more together in a way that you just get sucked into!
"Every time you take one path, you must live with the memory of the other: of a life left unchosen. Decide as seems best, one course or the other; each way will have its bitter with its sweet."
