Betrayal by Gillian Shields REVIEW


Immortal series: Book Two
Summary:

When Evie Johnson started at Wyldcliffe Abbey School for Young Ladies, her life changed in ways she couldn't possibly have envisioned: the discovery of her link with Lady Agnes, her special bond with Helen and Sarah, and their sisterhood in the astonishing secrets of the Mystic Way. Above all, Evie's love for Sebastian has turned her world upside down.
Now Evie returns to Wyldcliffe for another term and more danger. Surrounded by enemies, she lives every day in fear that Sebastian will fall into the darkness of servitude to the Unconquered Lords. The Wyldcliffe coven is plotting to destroy Evie and use Sebastian to secure their own immortality. Evie and her sisters must master the power of the Talisman before it is too late. But could it be Sebastian himself who will ultimately betray Evie?

My Thoughts:

The first book, Immortal, was really good even though I read and reviewed it a very long time ago.
I expected this book to be just as good.
While it was well written and exciting with lots of surprising twists, it gave you the wrong idea of what would happen at the end; if you think Sebastian will be saved but still live, you'll be disappointed. While Sebastian got free of becoming something that he never wanted to be, he could only stay alive for one more day. He died, but he wouldn't be in torment like he would have if he didn't die.
Conclusion: this book was a great sequel but not as good as the first one.

My Rating: 4 stars
