YA
Arcana Chronicles series.
Picking up where Endless Knight left off, Evie escapes Death's comfortable lair to save her beloved Jack from the perverse Lovers. However, to truly defeat the Lovers, Evie must convince Jack and Death to work together and must learn to invoke her Empress powers. More character study than adventure, this sequel hooks readers with an angsty love triangle.

YA
Arcana Chronicles series.
This second installment picks up with the world still having ended, teens who were fated to be representations of tarot cards still gathering to slaughter one another, and Evie still unsure what to do about her romantic life, especially now that sexy Death has complicated things further. Too many elements and occasionally overwrought love scenes compete with a genuinely clever concept.

YA
Arcana Chronicles series.
Sixteen-year-old Evie's horrifying visions turn out to be prophetic and intensely personal. Embodiments of Tarot cards (of which Evie is one) are slowly drawn together for an epic battle across an apocalyptic landscape. This mostly entertaining first novel in an anticipated series is promising. However, choppy pacing and a hot and cold romance that ultimately adds very little may put readers off.
