Fantasy Fiction Literature & Fiction Religion & Spirituality Science Fiction & FantasyIn this sequel to his award-winning "Children in the Night," Harold Myra delivers more of the same. His incredible world is back in full force along with his vivid descriptions and storytelling. Unfortunately, while one main character is blind and other can see, he writes both the same way, forfeiting any artistic differences between the two points of view. In this respect, his world-building suffers, for all descriptions...

I'm having trouble deciding which book is better, Children in the Night, (the first book in this series) or this book. This was very good, and very similiar to the first. Yosha and asel were in the book, but only briefly. The main characters more than took their place though. I would recommend this book, and the whole series to anyone.

Wonderful!! This second book suffers no middle child syndrome. I enjoyed the cameos by the cherished Yosha and Asel, tho missed their presence. However, the scepter is carried high and well by our new, young blind princess. As ever, the imagery is incredible - best read by candlelight.
