Publisher's summary

As the last Healer in the Fifteen Realms, Avry of Kazan is in a unique position: in the minds of friends and foes alike, she no longer exists. Despite her need to prevent the megalomaniacal King Tohon from winning control of the Realms, Avry is also determined to find her sister and repair their estrangement. And she must do it alone, as Kerrick, her partner and sole confidant, returns to Alga to summon his country into battle.

Though she should be in hiding, Avry will do whatever she can to support Tohon's opponents. That includes infiltrating a holy army, evading magic sniffers, teaching forest skills to soldiers, and figuring out how to stop Tohon's most horrible creations yet: an army of the walking dead - human and animal alike and nearly impossible to defeat.

War is coming and Avry is alone. Unless she figures out how to do the impossible…again.

Scent of Magic

This is the second book of a trilogy. The story picks up pace in this book as you are kept guessing as to who is good or evil. The conflict of who will rule the land from the fist book, becomes even more tangled with addition of more contenders. The main character continues her struggle to preserve life and goodness during a time when people find it easier to stray to unsavory ways. The plot is exciting and unpredictable. Hard to put this one down.

Another quick-paced story

Interesting continuation of Avry's story Like with the first book, there seems to be a lot going on without much happening. The mystery of the lilies has yet to be resolved, so I'm still curious to find out what happens next.

A tad bit drawn out...

I loved the first book in this series and looked forward to this one. Although good, it was not as good as the first. The story line dragged on without the 'I can't wait to hear more'.
I found myself thinking 'get on with it, will ya, already!'
I liked the narration quite well, and will probably take a chance when the next book comes out in this series...i hope there is a next one...lol

Amazing Story

This book held my interest from the first sentence. It is a gripping story read by the author. Viola Davis has always been one of my favorite actors, but learning how she not only survived a horrific childhood, but was able to find happy memories within it, and be able to become the icon she is today. She truely is a hero.

Great 2nd book

This book was an excellent continuation of the storyline but was also able to stand alone on its own merits. Again, the narration was exceptional. The depth of emotion conveyed made the story more compelling in this format than in print.

Vilde lander

Loved the story about the tribes Sokna and Jevnaker. I am from Norway, I have 2 sisters, 1 lives in Sokna and the other lives in Jevnaker. I am not even joking!
I am becoming a fan of this series 😊

Can't Wait for the Next One!

Another solid book in a very entertaining series. This book picked up right where the last book left off and just like the first, I found it hard to put it down. Avry had a few dumb moments in this book that made her character a little uneven. She would seem so strong and capable and smart in some ways and then incredibly naive and slow to pick up on clues that seemed super obvious. But overall, it was a good book. And I'm looking forward to reading the third book when it comes out. Sucks to have to wait until the Fall!!!
