They believed that evil was vanquished…until they unleashed the Death Goddess.
After the war with Manitou, Violet Poet-Tongue is now an honored member of the Skin Walker pack alongside Tohon, the warrior alpha who bit her. She is celebrated among her new people and claimed a hero, but Violet senses something dark within the wilderness, an unspeakable evil that grows stronger every day.
Then on a cold winter morning, Queen Kamaria of the Bastet Clan, Tohon’s mother, arrives with members of her pack, including a feisty daughter named Hila, and Tafari, a wise shaman. They seek shelter after facing the perils of their homeland. But Violet also learns the Bastets had a vision of Pomela, Goddess of Death, and she desires to kill all Animal Children using ancient earthen spirits called Primordials. To make matters even more complicated, Kamaria has secrets about her magick she won’t reveal, causing tension between Violet and the Bastets.
Violet and Tohon must face ancient monsters and magickal secrets, but can they stop Pomela while forming an alliance with the Bastet Clan?
My Review: 4.5 STARS
I picked this up having read the first book and was looking forward to getting lost in the world again. While it’s a short quick read, there were some parts that I felt could’ve been expanded upon, though it didn’t take away from the enjoyment of it. Stan has a way of making the world vivid for you and pulling you into it, and taking you along for the ride. Overall a good read!
