Summary – From Goodreads

“Revenge is a temptress, full of promise, but she rarely satisfies… and almost always exacts payment.“

Still grieving over the loss of his wife and daughter, King Axil of Aranox declares war on The Guild of Takers. The GOT’s High Order responds, strengthening its efforts to kill both of Baelon’s monarchs. Tristan Godfrey seeks his brother’s murderer, and true love is made to wait again as Sibil Dunn embarks on a solitary crusade. Saved from the guillotine, Overseer Reynard Rascall looks to avenge Spiro’s death, while retired Royal Guard, Rolft Aerns, recovers from his wounds and puts away his sword—until, that is, he learns of Sibil’s quest.

And all of Baelon hangs in the balance.

The Legends of Baelon, Book Two

My Review

I really enjoyed reading Two Crowns, Three Blades.  I enjoyed the first book in the series but this second one took the story to a whole new level! 

Sibil has been through so much that she just wants some normalcy and true love.  But King Axil has declared war on the GOT (Guild Of Takers).  Sibil thinks this is her opportunity to get revenge for everything that she has lost. When she is denied the opportunity to be part of the Baelon Aranox army she decides to take matters into her owns hands and find justice for those that she has lost.  King Axil and Sibil both seek revenge and won't give up fighting no matter the cost.  There are other characters also seeking revenge for one thing or another.  

I liked how the author continued the story from the previous book but made this installment even better.  The characters continued to develop throughout the story and we got to meet some new ones along the way like Gradi.  I like Sibil's perseverance and how she fights for what she believes in.  Although she finds herself in some unpredictable moments along the way.  I enjoyed all the adventures of not only Sibil but also of Reynard and Rolft.  Reynard is one of the villains in the story but there is just something that I like about him.  

This story is filled with action, adventure, mystery, suspense and a bit of romance.  It is a real page turner and I recommend reading it.  I am hoping that the author is going to continue with the story because I need to find out more about these characters and their stories!
