About the book:

A Gathering of Shadows by Victoria Schwab
Book #2 in A Darker Shade of Magic series

Four months have passed since the shadow stone fell into Kell’s possession. Four months since his path crossed with Delilah Bard. Four months since Rhy was wounded and the Dane twins fell, and the stone was cast with Holland’s dying body through the rift, and into Black London.

In many ways, things have almost returned to normal, though Rhy is more sober, and Kell is now plagued by his guilt. Restless, and having given up smuggling, Kell is visited by dreams of ominous magical events, waking only to think of Lila, who disappeared from the docks like she always meant to do. As Red London finalizes preparations for the Element Games—an extravagant international competition of magic, meant to entertain and keep healthy the ties between neighboring countries—a certain pirate ship draws closer, carrying old friends back into port.

But while Red London is caught up in the pageantry and thrills of the Games, another London is coming back to life, and those who were thought to be forever gone have returned. After all, a shadow that was gone in the night reappears in the morning, and so it seems Black London has risen again—meaning that another London must fall.

Expected publication: February 23rd 2016 by Tor

I didn’t get the chance to read “A Darker Shade of Magic” yet, but I’ve heard so many great things about it. I also loved Victoria’s The Archived series, so I am sure that I will love these two new books to pieces too.

Not to mention that the covers are simply amazing, I am not sure which edition to purchase for this series, as I want them both 😀

    I also didn’t read ‘A Darker Shade of Magic’ (yet) but I heard only good about it. Must correct that mistake soon!
    I like both versions of covers. Maybe the version with white background just a bit more…

      I find it so hard to pick between editions, there is always one element that I like more on one or another ;)) I can’t wait to get my hands on these beauties and read them.
