Ok this book was alot better than the first one in my opinion. It was the sequel to the book The Sight. It ened alot better as well. It finished off where the first book left off and tied up most of the loose ends. It left open the future for Fell and it least it gave him a happy future. This book was more involved with humans and a human girl (Alina) was one of the main characters. I liked her alot along with Catalin her somewhat boyfriend. It really made the impact if humans in the world a big issue.
Review/Description
The sequel to The Sight (2002) is another mesmerizing page-turner set in Transylvania, in which the author again draws on old legends and tales, including those about Baba Yaga and Dracula. Fell, the black wolf who wanders without a pack, and Alina, a 15-year-old human, are both gifted with the Sight, which enables them to communicate, and both haunted by frightening visions, dreams, and inner demons. The companions join forces to fulfill a prophecy indicating that Alina willrescue nature itself from doom. Their trek is fraught with perils introduced by the evil Lord Vladeran, who tried to have Alina killed asa very little girl and has recently learned that she still lives. Vladeran's arsenal includes the spirit of the cunning wolf Morgra, called up to exert dark powers over Fell. Despite some minor discrepancies and an ending that feels way too pat, this book will be deemed worth the trip by returning readers as well as some newcomers, who will find sufficient back story to illuminate this adventure and to pique interest in the earlier one.
