![]() ![]() I read Vicious, gave it 3 stars because it was at a time when I thought I had to like popular books (embarrassing, I know, it was also more of 2 star read) and the issues I had with that are largely the same I have with A Darker Shade of Magic. This is the second novel I read from Schwab and I have gauged what I do not like about her writing, so it’s time for me to just admit her books are not for me. ![]() This is where Schwab and I amicably part ways To save all of the worlds, they’ll first need to stay alive. Now perilous magic is afoot, and treachery lurks at every turn. She first robs him, then saves him from a deadly enemy, and finally forces Kell to spirit her to another world for a proper adventure. ![]() It’s a defiant hobby with dangerous consequences, which Kell is now seeing firsthand.Īfter an exchange goes awry, Kell escapes to Grey London and runs into Delilah Bard, a cut-purse with lofty aspirations. Unofficially, Kell is a smuggler, servicing people willing to pay for even the smallest glimpses of a world they’ll never see. Kell was raised in Arnes-Red London-and officially serves the Maresh Empire as an ambassador, traveling between the frequent bloody regime changes in White London and the court of George III in the dullest of Londons, the one without any magic left to see. Goodreads blurb: Kell is one of the last Antari-magicians with a rare, coveted ability to travel between parallel Londons Red, Grey, White, and, once upon a time, Black. ![]()
