The second book in the trilogy starts up just a few weeks after the first book ends. It is VITAL that you read the first book or you will be very confused. There was wonderful world-building that went into the first book and it will help you understand and jump into this 2nd book easier.

I really like the main character Katira. She has grown into a strong, loyal, and determined young lady. It's amazing to see how much she changes and learns in her journey to becoming a Stonebearer. There are some very intricate details about the things she must learn as she is an apprentice. Don't read it when you are tired or you may need to go back and reread. I truly wanted to take notes so I'd remember what each glyph would do. I also really loved every chapter that Katira's father, Master Jarend was in. He is brave and would sacrifice all for those he loves. Many minor characters had important roles in this novel. This made for interesting reading, especially in the action/battle scenes.

This YA Fantasy has such a cool world with many heroes, a super wicked villain, and a magic system that has totally intrigued me since book one. If you love reading YA fantasy with Kick Butt action, some mystery, and a little sweet romance, you will love reading the Stonebearer's Apprentice.
