More like 3.5 stars. I tried to give this series another shot. I wasnât crazy about the first installment, and I wasnât crazy about this one either. Kate is starting to be a more interesting character as we dip into her past, but I think I have liked all the other characters more than her so far. I do very much like the concept of magic ebbing and flowing in the post apocalyptic world Kate and her gang live in though. Very interesting. I also enjoy the concept of a ward coming into play later on in the series. I will likely read the next book but Iâm not desperate for it.
