{Fantasy Review} The Remedy (Eyes of E'veria #2) by Serena Chase

{Fantasy Review} The Remedy (Eyes of E'veria #2)  by Serena Chase

The Remedy (Eyes of E'veria, #2)
Having come to terms with her long-hidden identity, Princess Rynnaia E’veri is ready to take her rightful place. But before she can join her father at Castle Rynwyk, she must endeavor to fulfill a 200-year-old prophecy and defeat the Kingdom’s ancient enemy, the Cobelds. Joined by her faithful knight, Sir Julien de Gladiel, and a gifted group of friends, Rynnaia must trek a dangerous path through canyons, forests, and into the very depths of a mountain where, if the prophetic scrolls prove correct, she will face an unknown foe, alone. Treacheries will be discovered, sacrifices will be made, friends will be lost, and love will be tested, but if even one line of the riddled prophecy is misinterpreted, Rynnaia will fail . . . and the Kingdom will fall.

Beginning at the point THE RYN ended, THE REMEDY concludes an epic re-imagining of the classic Grimm fairy tale, SNOW WHITE & ROSE RED. But the Eyes of E'veria series is only beginning . . . (Blurb via Goodreads)

{Review}
"By the time the Cobeld retrieved his brother's body from the Great Wood of Mynissbyr, there was little left but bones, hair and the dagger that had done the job." (page 1, line 1)
This is book two in the series, so go read book one, The Ryn. I loved it, my review of The Ryn is here. I adored The Ryn and could hardly wait to plunge into book two - which I devoured - and fell a little more in love with Chase's characters and her world.

The Remedy picks up where we left off, with Rynnaia knowing who she is and what she has to do. She has an epic quest ahead of her but she also has to learn how to be a princess. The Remedy was more exciting and faster paced, without all the exposition The Ryn required, and had more action. And even more danger, sacrifice, duty, loss, and betrayal. And the romance? Loved it! Conducting a courtship while on a quest is a challenge but Julian more than manages. He sure knows how to make a girl feel loved.

There is a definite conclusion to events in The Remedy Chase sets things up for the next book set in the world of E'veria. I can't wait to see what happens next.
