SIngurul lucru pe care Mare Barrow îl știe este acela că e diferită. Culoarea sângelui ei este Roșie - culoarea oamenilor obișnuiți, dar abilitatea ei este de viță nobilă, Argintie, puterea de a controla lumina a transformat-o într-o armă pe care curtea regală dorește să o controleze.
Urmărită de către răzbunătorul rege Argintiu, Mare are misiunea de a recruta alți Roșii și Argintii pentru a se înrola în rebeliunea menită să înlăture acest regim tiranic.
Dar Mare se află pe un drum periculos și riscă să devină ca cei pe care încearcă să îi învingă.

Luminita Nicoleta Stoian a dat nota:

Just like the first book, this one was amazing also. I have read it so fast, I couldn't let it go. The characters are strong, really good portrayed, the action is thrilling and the ending makes you want more.


Anonim a dat nota:

It wasn't a bad sequel, though sometimes some of the characters and their monologues/concerns really annoyed me. Also, sometimes it seemed that Mare's powers are just unusually strong, even though she barely had enough time to master them.


Firru . a dat nota:

I actually enjoyed this more than I did Red Queen, it was fun to read about the other powers that Reds could have. I still want a better idea for where this is coming from or what is happening but there was some progress on that front as well here so I'm satisfied for now. Farley and Kilorn were great, not that I didn't like them in the first one but this one only let me enjoy them much more and now I'm like completely attached to them. I wouldn't mind getting to have more plot line with the New Bloods though because as of right now I don't really care as much about them but that's a later problem.

Descriere

From the NEW YORK TIMES number one bestselling author of RED QUEEN.

If there's one thing Mare Barrow knows, it's that she's different.

Mare's blood is red - the colour of common folk - but her Silver ability, the power to control lightning, has turned her into a weapon that the royal court wants to control.

Pursued by the vengeful Silver king, Mare sets out to find and recruit other Red-and-Silver fighters to join the rebellion.

But Mare finds herself on a deadly path, at risk of becoming exactly the kind of monster she is trying to defeat. Will she shatter under the weight of the lives that are the cost of rebellion? Or have treachery and betrayal hardened her forever?

Textul de pe ultima copertă

If there’s one thing Mare Barrow knows, it’s that she’s different.
Mare Barrow’s blood is red—the color of common folk—but her Silver ability, the power to control lightning, has turned her into a weapon that the royal court tries to control.
The crown calls her an impossibility, a fake, but as she makes her escape from Maven, the prince—the friend—who betrayed her, Mare uncovers something startling: She is not the only one of her kind.
Pursued by Maven, now a vindictive king, Mare sets out to find and recruit other Red-and-Silver fighters to join in the struggle against her oppressors.
But Mare finds herself on a deadly path, at risk of becoming exactly the kind of monster she is trying to defeat.
Will she shatter under the weight of the lives that are the cost of rebellion? Or have treachery and betrayal hardened her forever?
The electrifying next installment in the Red Queen series escalates the struggle between the growing rebel army and the blood-segregated world they’ve always known—and pits Mare against the darkness that has grown in her soul.
