Seraphina continues on her journey to find the other half breeds. Shadow Scale<\/em> is the sequel to\u00a0Seraphina<\/em> by Rachel Hartman.\u00a0This review may contain spoilers to<\/u><\/strong>\u00a0<\/u><\/strong>Seraphina<\/u><\/strong><\/em>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n When\u00a0Seraphina<\/em>\u00a0ended, I wanted nothing more than to read\u00a0Shadow Scale<\/em>\u00a0straight away and follow Seraphina\u2019s adventures. This is a major reason why Seraphina<\/em> made it to my\u00a0Favourite Books of Second Half of 2016<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n At the end of\u00a0Seraphina<\/em>\u00a0we are standing at the brink of a war. Seraphina needs to find the other half breeds. Dragons and humans have begun to distrust one another. Orma, Seraphina’s uncle and a dragon who loves knowledge, is sent to have his memories removed. Seraphina and Prince Lucian have decided to be secretive about their love for another so as not to upset Princess Glisselda, Lucian’s fiance.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n If you still have not added\u00a0Seraphina<\/em>\u00a0to your TBR, I urge you to do that. The book is such an amazing read. You might want to check\u00a0Why Seraphina is a must-read for dragon lovers<\/a><\/span>. So after we\u00a0 read that last page of\u00a0Seraphina<\/em>, we are at a cliffhanger ending. And here are the questions that claw our hearts and gnaw at our peace-of-mind\u00a0about the sequel :<\/p>\n <\/p>\n -More about Orma. He was one amazing book-hoarding-dragon. Does he survive the memory erasing procedure, does he escape, does he die?<\/p>\n – How will Seraphina team up the half breeds? Will there be a war?<\/p>\n – Shadow Scale<\/em>\u00a0must be more fast paced than\u00a0Seraphina<\/em>\u00a0because it is all going to be action and war.(Wooho)<\/p>\n – Seraphina<\/em> had amazing world-building. Will we see more developments? Will we see more of the political hierarchy of the neighbouring countries?<\/p>\n -The music! Such an integral part of Seraphina. Will her music help her in the next task?<\/p>\n -The romance, of course- Lucien and Seraphina have such a good chemistry. How will their life ahead be?<\/p>\n -How will Glisselda react to the news of her fianc\u00e9 falling for her tutor and friend?<\/p>\n <\/p>\nExpectations<\/h3>\n
