(From Goodreads)

          Llona will do whatever it takes to protect her new found friends and home, but the dark plot that is threatening Lucent Academy, a school that’s supposed to be a safe place for Auras, may be too powerful for even Llona to defeat. This fast-paced tale of love, loyalty, and overcoming the darkness will keep you on the edge of your seat until the last page!


          Rachel's writing style draws you in with it's pacing, main character's point of view, and mystery plus creepiness. The way it's woven makes you want to keep the light on and keep reading. Rachel is very good at suspense and cliff hangers so once you come to a chapter end you've simply got to keep reading. It's as if the chapter breaks aren't really there. Just as in the first book, the story will keep you guessing at what's what and who's who. Because the main character has the power to manipulate and use light, the theme of the internal, metaphorical battling of light and darkness is present, though in this case, as in much good fiction, it is explored in a literal (no pun intended) sense, as light and dark are very real in the world of the Fractured Light series. The way that Rachel writes this struggle, in the mind and perspective of the teenage main character, in small at first, and then increasingly large manifestations, rings very authentic and human.
