The Vanishing Throne: Book Two of the Falconer Trilogy - Elizabeth May
  I loved this! Much darker than book one of the series so be prepared. For people who loved all the gadgets in book one, you are going to be disappointed because there is none of that in this volume. Lots of death and destruction and loss with another cliffhanger ending that will have you frantic for the next volume. But this book wrapped itself around my heart it was so amazing!
Highly recommended!!
