Gayle Sands: I read the first book a while ago. I’m not sure why I waited so long for the equally well- written sequel.

Deni Brooksong.: I found it fascinating to read this second tale from a different perspective. Mostly Gisela's, though others are included. I love the story, the characters and the weaving of it's still strands as it evolves. It is a wonderful book that I highly recommend. It will not disappoint.

Eugenia Diomedi: I have never been disappointed by Amy Harmon and I loved this book like the others. Her characters are so beautifully written and you punch the air when all goes well for them and feel heartbreak when all seems lost. The ebbs and flows of the story line keeps you going but you are never left wanting. Trust me when I say again, you won't be disappointed.....

joonbug: I tend to read through the library of authors I like so if Amy Harmon is writing fantasy, I suppose that means I'm reading fantasy. She writes novels with tight plot lines so I can't fault this book even if it isn't in my usual genre of reading, so I'm on to the next in this duo without hesitation.

Reifer: Another really well constructed, entertaining and absorbing book. As with the first, I couldn’t put this down and have neglected much because of that!

Hajni: I did need this different perspective and I’m so grateful for the second book. I absolutely in love with the writing, the words, the dramatics. I love the human lives in this book and their imperfections. I love how deep their fate is.

The Second Blind Son (The Chronicles of Saylok, Book 2)
By: Amy Harmon
My Rating: FIVE OUT OF FIVE STARS
Best for: 18 and up
Whoa. Wow. Holy cow. What a story!
The Second Blind Son was….powerful? Passionate? Gripping? Romantic? Really, really cool?
Yes. Yes it was.
I was impressed with The First Girl Child, and I don’t impress easily. Just the Norse-Mythology based worldbuilding alone deserves praise for it’s careful detail and seamless incorporation into the narrative. It’s smooth. And it’s awesome. It was very well imagined, wonderfully built, and perfectly executed. Theology, culture, government, the magic system, and even societal expectations were delivered clearly, and in a way I would have expected from a much longer book. Skilled writing, indeed!
The characters and their...

Helo:
Todas as resenhas que faço sobre os livros de Amy sempre começam com esta frase: NÃO SEI COMO ELA FAZ, MAS ELA FEZ. NOVAMENTE. A cada anúncio de novo livro, as expectativas continuam crescendo fortes e exageradas. E de uma forma incrível e inexplicável, ela vai além do que minha mente imagina que vai encontrar. E bem, este não foi uma exceção.
Eu amei tanto voltar ao universo de Saylok, porque acho muito interessante a mitologia nórdica usada como inspiração, e Amy vai além e faz com que pareça melhor do que as histórias que costumamos conhecer no mundo pop.Esta história é super bem imaginada e expandida (para aqueles que leram The first Girl Child antes) e mais uma vez, Amy construiu maravilhosamente essa narrativa.Devo dizer que, este livro encaixa-se perfeitamente na lacuna de tempo que acontece no livro anterior deste mundo de saylok, onde não vemos o ocorrido com os personagens principais por um tempo, e creio que essa tinha sido a razaão. Foi uma grata surpresa podermos para os momentos anteriores da história de Alba e Bayr do ponto de vista de novos protagonistas,e também foi fantástico reencontrar Nossos personagens queridos...

Gina Ann: Excellent second book in this series, laughed at some parts and cried too! Loved the very sexy love scene of Hod & Liis making love in front of the mirror, very exotic for a blind man!
