Continuing the fun. ( )

Tweede deel in de serie in de 'Uncertain Sanctuary' serie en het was bijna net zo goed en onderhoudend als deel 1. Hier zit wat meer info over de werking van het huis en van de planeten en werelden waar het naar toe kan reizen. Technische informatie waar ik meestal niet zoveel mee kan, zeker niet omdat ik het boek in het Engels heb gelezen. Maar het verhaal van Kira en Evander, Madra en alle andere bewoners van het huis was net zo heerlijk als in deel 1. Door in deel 3. ( )

Learning to be a sorcerer is hard when you don't know the rules. Kira takes on the challenge by investing her trust in New people. She wants to do good but this will be seen as weakness. Balance is everything and adventures continue to deliver everything a fantasy novel should. ( )

Facts and puzzles and people keep piling up; Kira begins to understand who and what she needs to be as a sorcerer (rather than leaving it to Gale to manage her reputation). Evander gets to go home, briefly, and...well, he puts some important things in train. It's not pleasant, but valuable. They discover a very nasty ongoing disaster that's being loudly ignored by the authorities (in some cases out of true ignorance, in others because it's more convenient that way...) and act. Which, besides being the right thing to do, earns them some solid allies. More groups get involved, and things get very convoluted...and the book ends on a cliffhanger of betrayal. Why, and what, and how could they... Next, please! ( )
