Resumen del Editor

New York Times best-selling author Stephanie Garber’s limitless imagination takes flight once more in the colorful, mesmerizing, and immersive sequel to the best-selling breakout audiobook debut Caraval

A heart to protect. A debt to repay. A game to win.

After being swept up in the magical world of Caraval, Donatella Dragna has finally escaped her father and saved her sister, Scarlett, from a disastrous arranged marriage. The girls should be celebrating, but Tella isn’t yet free. She made a desperate bargain with a mysterious criminal, and what Tella owes him no one has ever been able to deliver: Caraval Master Legend’s true name.

The only chance of uncovering Legend’s identity is to win Caraval, so Tella throws herself into the legendary competition once more - and into the path of the murderous heir to the throne, a doomed love story, and a web of secrets...including her sister's. Caraval has always demanded bravery, cunning, and sacrifice. But now the game is asking for more. If Tella can’t fulfill her bargain and deliver Legend’s name, she’ll lose everything she cares about - maybe even her life. But if she wins, Legend and Caraval will be destroyed forever.

Welcome, welcome to Caraval...the games have only just begun.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"...this is a tour de force of imagination." (Kirkus)

held my attention

It was a bit predictable but I would like to see what happens next. @}~~`~~

loved loved this book!

it was so good, so much better than the first one! I can't wait until the next book comes out!

another masterpiece

I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE these stories. I didn't think the second one would top the first but it totally surpassed it (and that's saying something) where's the next one?!?

Great Sequel!

Just finished this. Loved the constant questioning of whom is actually whom. Can't wait for the next one!

magical

I think i liked this one better than the first. I did end up guessing the ending but I kinda feel like the epilogue should have been better.

Dizzying plotline

Fantastic world to visit! Colorful and entrancing. Must read Finale to pull it all together!

4.5 Stars from Me!

This was such a quick and action packed read! I listened on audio and the narrator was great at voicing Tella. Though I like Scarlet best out of the sisters, I did enjoy the switched POV to Donatella in this one, and getting to see her view on Caraval and the world, and get to learn more about her and what makes her the way she is.

While I found some of this book to be predictable, there were still many shocking and exciting moments that drew me into the story and wanted me to continue to push on reading.

I wasn’t a fan of the misunderstanding and miscommunication between Scarlet and Julian, and the whole thing of her being wishy-washy as to if she wants to give him another chance while also giving Nicholas a chance…it doesn’t seem fitting to her character for me as she always plays things safe, and while I admit she’s given Julian several opportunities to prove himself, I know things will get messy and the ball will drop eventually.

I can’t wait to read Finale and see how everything wraps up! And to see what will come of Donatella and Legend, as well as their newly returned mother. And what about all the fates running lose?! SCARY.

Overall, I rate this one:

🌟🌟🌟🌟.💫/5 Stars (=4.5 Stars)

The story pulls you in, the writing does not

I think we can all agree that the story is interesting. I know I'll read the last book and overall I like the series. However, the writing is just.. awful. Every feeling is unreal, every description is over the top and the comparison of everything to a color is so annoying your eyes will get stuck from rolling them so much. "It smelled of memories and pain," "it was the color of melted silver and dreams," "he felt like a nightmare wrapped in stardust...." etc. etc.
None of the imagery is relatable because none of the words used to describe people or scenes make any sense.
Then there's the fact that every boy is beautiful and kissing is just so great. I know it's for younger audiences but it's so juvenile sometimes, its painful.

Pretty good listen

This second installment of Caraval is told from Scarlet’s sisters (Donatella) point of view. She’s definitely feistier than Scarlet & gets herself into trouble by making rash decisions. If you’re into magic & mystery then this is for you!
