Review of 'A Darker Shade of Magic' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
A fun read. Schwab's writing is smooth and easy. The absence of answers rankles me though - Athos' death, Holland's body, why Athos didn't command his guards to keep an eye out for Lila, the stone's search for a host. And the end of the book doesn't sit well for a trilogy.
