Quite the Novel Idea https://quitethenovelidea.com https://quitethenovelidea.com/liza-reviews-grace-dravens-books/The Brush of Black Wings is a shorter sequel to Master of Crows (about 135 pages long) and it was great.  It takes months after the ending of the first book and it finds Martise and Silhara getting along perfectly, full of passion, caring and love for each other.  Martise is picking mushrooms when she encounters a very strange place in the grounds of Neith and inadvertently awakens something sinister.  There issues an adventure when this 'entity' kidnaps his beloved and Silhara must find a way to get her back.  Luckily, he's the most powerful sorcerer of his time and he's not afraid of a little dark magic.

I love these characters and it's always amazing to be able to visit with them, I often wish that Ms. Draven will write forever about them... Anyway, the devotion that Silhara and Martise feel for each other is straightforward, but so endearing to see.  There is nothing they won't do for each other.   I also love how this story ties to another one of her books - Eidolon - which I finished a little while ago and I will review soon.

If you read and loved Master of Crows, this one is a must read.This review was originally posted on Quite the Novel Idea
