Resumen del Editor

In the second installment of the A Fire Beneath the Skin trilogy, Rina Veraiin has youth, beauty, and strength. She is a born warrior, able to outride any man, deal death with her fierce blade, and command awesome and mysterious forces granted to her by a set of magical tattoos. Now as the newly minted duchess of Klaar, Rina confronts a menace that threatens her world in a divine conflict that will push her newfound abilities to their limits.

As sinister and magical forces unite against her, Rina's only chance at stopping them is to gain new tattoos that will increase her powers beyond anything she has known before. United with her few trusted companions, she makes her desperate quest across a bloodshed-ravaged land while war brews among the gods.

With the enchanted world of Helva hanging in the balance, Rina must learn to wield extraordinary power to save herself and her people, before unimaginably powerful forces—and the savage fury of the gods—tear apart the land forever.

Half a book

Charming writing and an interesting world, but ultimately nothing much happens in book 2 — it seems to be mere prelude to book 3.

Good transirion book.

This is a transition book . and not as exciting as Book one. HOWEVER, for the series to continue one must get the characters in line. great characters and the reading is excellent.

Wait For The Ending

Wait until all the books in the series is complete. The endings in the first books don't tie the books up. Cliff hangers.... Personal preference is not to have stories flip back and forth between story segments.. The books are adequate I finished them.

just as good as the first in series

Great story, phenomenal narration.

The book is mostly unpredictable where it counts, and very entertaining, with interesting and well developed characters.
The narrator's performance is superb!

Looking forward to the next book.

Continually Entertaining

This middle novel, the second of the trilogy, was delightful and engaging, though the ending wasn’t so much of an ending as a set up for the final book. The complete series is wonderful, and prompted me to seek out more of Gischler’s work.

another good entry in this series.

I enjoyed the book, and the performance was very good. fun and creative. leaves you on a cliffhanger, which is not very satisfying, but you do want to know what happens next, so I suppose it was successfully done.

Better than the first

I was torn by the time I finished the first book but I'm glad I read the second. Not fully in love with the series but I believe I will see it to the end.

Incomplete Story

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

First of all, Fiona did a great job with her narration. I enjoy this series and where it seems to be going, however, this particular book (Book 2), seemed as if it ended in the middle of the story. I'm sure that the last book will probably complete the story, but it seems like Victor wanted to maximize profits, so he split what should have been one book into two books, leaving the first book incomplete. Well, the last book will be out soon. Let's see how the story ends.

Good Story Line - WAY TOO MUCH SEX

The story was really good, unfortunately I am not one for extensive sex scenes and in this book they continued to get worse and worse to where I had to delete the book without finishing it. So if sex is not your thing, avoid this book, otherwise, enjoy.

Worth every moment.

I preordered the next one and will be listening to it the day it comes out! Definitely a big fan.
