Any non-Gardnerian must be chased or enslaved.īut there is a resistance trying to save as many as possible, to evacuate people before escape is impossible.Įlloren and her friends will be active members of the resistance, with the ever sexy and secretive Yvan Guriel. What our heroes are facing is a future tyranny and a witch hunt.
You feel in the air that there is a culling on its way and that added a tension, a race to save as many non-Gardnerian as possible that had my heart racing! I talked about Nazism in the first book and this feeling intensifies in The Iron Flower. In that second instalment, we’ll delve deep into Marcus Vogel insanity and race for the purity of the Gardnerian blood. When I stopped reading, I barely took the time to jot down these key words: drama, pain, sobbing, death, loss of friends, battles, injustice, romance, hidden powers. As his very nearness seems to awaken a destructive power inside her, Elloren finds it more and more difficult to believe that she’s truly powerless, as her uncle always claimed.Ĭaught between her growing feelings for the rebellious Yvan Guriel and the seductive power offered by Lukas Grey, Elloren must find a way to stay true to what she knows is right and protect everyone she loves…even if that means protecting them from herself.Ī mini review not because that book was bad, on the contrary, but because I am so enamored with that series that I rushed to read The Shadow Wand. Though Elloren tries to keep him at arm’s length, Lukas is determined to wandfast to her, convinced that she has inherited her grandmother’s magic-the prophesied power of the Black Witch. With tensions heating up in Verpacia, more and more Gardnerian soldiers continue to descend upon the university…led by none other than Lukas Grey, now commander of the newly rebuilt Fourth Division base.

Elloren Gardner and her friends were only seeking to right a few wrongs, but their actions have propelled them straight into the ranks of the realm-wide Resistance against Gardnerian encroachment.
