A Sea Of Sorrow And Scorn (The Levanthria Series Book 2)

Product Information

Adding to that the plot kept me reading and the fantasy scenes (cough - skeletons, sea creatures etc) carried their share of clarity which is a big plus for me.

It was a smart choice on the author's part to focus on a totally different character within the world. I'm also confused as to what sort of magical horse Beswick has invented that three people can ride on it, not be unseated by its 'bucks', and it's still capable of speed. The characters on the horse, two of which are soaking wet, don't notice that they're soaking wet until after they 'stop to rest the horse' and have a conversation where they politely introduce themselves to each other.Loved that is related to the first book even though it was a very different story and even had an overlapping character. Normally you hear people complain about an author padding the story with unnecessary details, but this one feels like entire sections could have been fleshed out for the better.

A Sea Of Sorrow And Scorn is the gripping second book in the Tales of Levanthria fantasy-retelling series. The ending was a bit of a surprise, and too rushed but definitely has me intrigued and happy to read on in the series. I loved the all the characters in this story and the attention to detail had me feeling like I was actually watching the events unfold. Also I feel the supporting characters of Darmour, Orjan and Navi could've been better off being introduced much earlier - I found them to be pretty interesting.The pacing was a bit different from what I usually read but I felt like it got straight to the point without a ton of unnecessary details. This sequel follows two main characters: Zerina, a young woman who is on the run for possessing illegal magical abilities, and Ulrik, a sailor who must protect his young sister, Esara, after their mother is murdered for her magical powers. I can tell you everything you want to know about Captain Jack Sparrow, Will Turner and Elizabeth Swan, but I can't even name a secondary character from movies 4 or 5.

Como alguien que no gusta de leer, este libro literalmente me lo acabé apenas me senté a leerlo, desde el libro de Robin Hood (A forest of Vanity and Valour), he leido este par de libros en 1 sentada, y al ser algo cortos, para alguien que no gusta de leer estuvo bastante bien, esperando con ansias los demás libros del autor. I will get to book three only to see if we revisit book one characters or if we get any closer to tying it all together. From beginning to end I was hooked by the characters and seeing them grow and seeing the seeds continue to be planted of a bigger story. Beswick's writing is similar to the first book in that it's simple, easy to access, cliché in places, but will surprise you with poignancy at times.

His ultimate hope is that readers grappling with similar issues may find solace in his stories, realizing that they're not alone, that it's okay to feel the way they do, and that it's important to open up and share. I tried to give this second book a chance after listening to the first one but I found myself genuinely uninterested in finishing it.

And the author tried to make us care for them, but we barely learned their names before they were out and we were left with a confusing death, some promise for vengeance and absolutely no background info on anyone. Apart from the main cast there were some notable side characters but unfortunately most of the side characters felt like replaceable cannon fodder without distinct personalities. But after witnessing her siblings' cruel deaths, she unleashes her powers for the first time and makes her escape.
