Description

In this breathtaking sequel to the instant New York Times bestseller For the Wolf, Red's sister Neve struggles to escape a mysterious land of twisted roots, lost gods, and mountains made of bone—and the only clues to her rescue are a magic mirror and a dark prince who wants to bring the whole thing crumbling down.

The First Daughter is for the Throne

The Second Daughter is for the Wolf...

Red and the Wolf have finally contained the threat of the Old Kings but at a steep cost. Red's beloved sister Neve, the First Daughter is lost in the Shadowlands, an inverted kingdom where the vicious gods of legend have been trapped for centuries and the Old Kings have slowly been gaining control. But Neve has an ally, though it's one she'd rather never have to speak to again: the rogue king Solmir.

Solmir wants to bring an end to the Shadowlands and he believes helping Neve may be the key to its destruction. But to do that, they will both have to journey across a dangerous landscape in order to find a mysterious Heart Tree, and finally to claim the gods' dark, twisted powers for themselves.

        Starred review from April 11, 2022
        The fairy tale world of Whitten’s Wilderwood duology hangs in the balance in the thrilling sequel to For the Wolf. Book one left twins Red and Neve Valedren separated and determined to find each other. Neve is trapped in the Shadowlands below, a land of old gods, old kings, and old bones, while above, Red and her love, Eammon, have become something like demigods and set free all those who were previously bound to the Wilderwood forest. Whitten sets up the sisters’ personalities and circumstances as mirrors as they fight their way back to each other. But the longer Neve remains in the Shadowlands in the company of Solmir, one of the legendary Five Kings, the more she realizes that her focus must be on more than just getting back to Red. The Shadowlands are crumbling as the old gods die, their power siphoned to the nefarious Five Kings, who are just as desperate to return to the world above as Neve is. Now Neve must find a way to stop the kings while keeping the magic of the Shadowlands from overwhelming her soul. Whitten packs this one with action, twists, and betrayals, and weaves in familiar fairy tale imagery with a light, sure hand. This proves a worthy finale.

        Whitten's latest picks up where For the Wolf (2021) left off, as Queen Neve wakes up inside a glass coffin in the Shadowlands, having drawn the surrounding dark magic into herself to prevent releasing the Five Kings. She discovers an unlikely ally in Solmir, the youngest of the Five Kings, who had worked with the evil priestess Kiri to unleash that magic. His surprising goal is to kill the other kings, and to accomplish that, they must destroy at least two of the three surviving Old Ones--creatures who were gods before the Five Kings promoted themselves to godhood. Meanwhile, in the Wilderwood, Red and Eammon the Wolf, having balanced the magic of the woods by absorbing it between them, search for a way to retrieve Neve, leading them to Rylt to retrieve information from Kiri, and back again as earthquakes signal the impending destruction of the Shadowlands and the release of the kings. Whitten's masterful reinterpretation of classic fairy tales is delightful, keeping readers on edge throughout the story.

        In this epic-fantasy sequel to For the Wolf, Queen Neve of Valleyda is trapped in the Shadowlands and forced to rely on Solmir, the rogue king who tricked her and nearly killed her sister. Even knowing Solmir's quest to kill the immortal Old Kings trapped in the Shadowlands with them, Neve finds herself drawn to him, and also to the dark power she feels growing inside her. Back in Valleyda, Neve's other sister Red, Red's husband, and her friends try to find ways to free Neve from the Shadowlands. With subversive forces on both sides fighting for their share of power, these siblings will make a choice that will either save their home and loved ones--or completely destroy them. Whitten's prose is captivating, and the sisters' stories take center stage even as other characters take their turns in chapter perspectives. VERDICT This lush feminist world may draw inspiration from European fairy tales, but the magic, politics, and relationships are firmly rooted in adult reading. Fans of Naomi Novik and Alix Harrow will enjoy this duology.--Kristi Chadwick
