About this listen

The extraordinary sequel to the New York Times best-selling Shadowshaper is daring, dazzling, defiant.

Shadowhouse rising

Sierra and her friends love their new lives as shadowshapers, making art and creating change with the spirits of Brooklyn. Then Sierra receives a strange card depicting a white beast called the Hound of Light - an image from the enigmatic, influential Deck of Worlds. The Deck tracks the players and powers of all the magical houses in the city, and when the real Hound begins to stalk Sierra through the streets, the shadowshapers know their next battle has arrived.

Worlds in revolution

Sierra and Shadowhouse have been thrust into an ancient struggle with enemies old and new - a struggle they didn't want, but are determined to win. Revolution is brewing in the real world as well, as the shadowshapers join the fight against systems that oppress and incarcerate their community. To protect her family and friends in every sphere, Sierra must take down the Hound and master the Deck of Worlds...or else she could lose everything that matters most.

Prodigious Read

The reader/ performance of this book was hands down in my top 3. I was hooked from the beginning. It's pace was perfect. I loved that you really didn't need to have read the 1st book. This second book was a stand alone story; but synched wonderfully if you had read the first. The world created by the auther would make a great television show. I would even switch over to Univision to watch (with English closed captioning of course).

Nice Follow up

I liked it. I wont lie, I've been in my feelings about this series since the first book, but like the first I still enjoyed it.

The first half isn't filled with as much action as the last 40%, but once the action started it picked up for me.

I think it had important topics brought up in the book, though I'm not sure the author took into account everything when putting them in the situations he did.

It's a very important story, and as an Afro-latinx woman, I'm glad it exists. I still think I'll have to wait longer for the afro latina heroine I can truly identify with, but the book and characters and language are really good.

I've been told so long my venacular wasnt worthy to be in a book, or was too stereotypical, and I'm glad books of today are proving that wrong.

Mad props to Maria getting in that dude's @÷× at the end. You dont mess with a boricua's daughter😂

Shadow shapers allow my imagination to run wield. It’s so interesting and exciting. Anika’s performance is amazing. This series keeps you on your toes. I can not wait for the next one.

Fabulous

Anika Noni Rose is a perfect narrator for this phenomenal story, and Older's fantastic story telling will keep you hooked all the way to the end and thirsty for the yet to be released third book in the series.

The narrator does a magnificent job bringing the characters to life in a fun and adventurous story of Magic and intrigue.

Great sequel - waiting for the next story...

This was a great next story to the first one. I enjoyed the first book just a little more because this one seems to be trying to evolve our knowledge of this world quickly and stretch it a bit further. For me the first one was less of a leap to buy into than this one, but I found myself wanting to know more either way. The narration is amazing. Anika Noni Rose's performance makes it a great listen and enhances the story more than if I was just reading it. I hope to see more performances by her in the future because I would check those books out just because she's the narrator.

A worthy sequel

Loved this book! Anika Noni Rose is phenomenal in her embodiment of the characters. Older writes with an authenticity and wit that is sorely missing in YA. Can't wait for the third book!
