I remember how it felt like the air around me burned with ash and cinder.

Friday 56:

If I hadn't been paying attention I would have missed the way Sorchas's gaze linger on him. "What if I told you I was on your side, Kadamach? That I wanted you to defeat my brother?"

This week I am spotlighting The Vanishing Throne by Elizabeth May. This is the second book in the Falconer trilogy. I got an eARC from NetGalley. Here is the description from Amazon:

The second book in the Falconer trilogy is packed with surprises and suspense. Aileana Kameron, the Falconer, disappeared through the portal that she was trying to close forever. Now she wakes up in the fae world, trapped and tortured by the evil Lonnrach. With the help of an unexpected ally, Aileana re-enters the human world, only to find everything irrevocably changed. Edinburgh has been destroyed, and the few human survivors are living in an uneasy truce with the fae, while both worlds are in danger of disappearing altogether. Aileana holds the key to saving both worlds, but in order to do so she must awaken her latent Falconer powers. And the price of doing that might be her life. Rich with imaginative detail, action, fae lore, and romance, The Vanishing Throne is a thrilling sequel to The Falconer.
