Gr 9 Up—A mash-up of supernatural romnance, Tarot mysticism, horror, and a dash of dystopia, this is a melodramatic gumbo that will divide teen readers into Team Jack or Team Death (the heroine's two beguiling paramours). Fans of the previous two books will be ravenous to get their hands on this latest installment.
Picking up where Endless Knight left off, Evie escapes Death's comfortable lair to save her beloved Jack from the perverse Lovers. However, to truly defeat the Lovers, Evie must convince Jack and Death to work together and must learn to invoke her Empress powers. More character study than adventure, this sequel hooks readers with an angsty love triangle.
