Welcome back to the kingdom of the Omte—a forest realm where secrets and danger, human nature and ancient mythology collide.
Where truth is stranger than fiction.
Searching for answers to her own shrouded origins, Ulla Tulin’s journey of
exploration takes a sudden turn when Eliana is kidnapped. Turning toward the
Omte capital instead of the institute where she hoped to learn the truth about
her identity, Ulla must put Eliana’s welfare before her own—a sacrifice that
will present all new dangers to them both.
When history is still unwritten.
Ulla never expected that once she arrived she’d discover the identity of a
Skojare man who crossed paths with her mother—a man who could very well be her
father. Given the man’s connections to the Älvolk, a secret society tasked with
protecting the location of the First City, Ulla is soon dispatched to Sweden to
find him.
One woman will dare to go wherever fate will take her…
Now Ulla, along with her maybe boyfriend Pan, finds herself on a desperate race against time to locate her kin—who could very well pose a danger to her kingdom. Nobody and nothing is as it seems as she penetrates the dark heart of the Älvolk…all the way to the secret Lost Bridge to the First City, where an unknown future awaits for Ulla and her kind.
My Review: Eeeeeeek! There are too many words to described my love for this world and how each one is better than the last. Anyway, Ulla's journey continues and we finally get answers to many questions from the first book.
Ulla and Pan take time to go search for answers to both Ulla's life and what might have happened to her friend. The start of the trip was a little awkward after finding out Pan's friend they will be staying with is a girl, well his ex really. Throughout the trip, Ulla doesn't gain too much information. She does get to meet with the Queen, get info on a man who maybe knows about the hidden bridge and so on. So after a few days they head back home.
Now back home, they go back to work and continue to look for answers. Then just as quickly as they got back, they get sent back out along with a few other folks as ambassadors. What Ulla gets this time is an overload of information. Her mothers name, meets her dad, her missing friend is more than just a friend and things don't slow down from there.
I can't wait to dive into the next book, even if it may mean the end of a world I've come love.
