Even though she promised the Goblin King she was going to play her song for him so he would hear and remember her and he could hold onto his humanity and whatever. The girl hasn’t touched music since Wintersong. So, it’s been half a year, and Liesl has abandoned music and is pouring herself into work at the Inn. But what I got from this book just wasn’t fulfilling.

I wanted, nay, NEEDED to know what was going to happen with the Goblin King and Liesl. When I finished Wintersong, I immediately went to Amazon and ordered the second book. I really did enjoy Wintersong! It was enjoyable and I was fangirling at the references and nods to the movie Labyrinth. They say the Hunt rides abroad when there is an imbalance between the Underground and the land of the living.Īlright so, Wintersong. One thing I can tell you for sure, though, is that two days later, this book has no special place in my heart or my head.

What will it take to break the old laws once and for all? What is the true meaning of sacrifice when the fate of the world-or the ones Liesl loves-is in her hands?Īlright… bear with me because, even though I’ve slept on it and it’s been two days, my thoughts on this book are still all over the place. When troubling signs arise that the barrier between worlds is crumbling, Liesl must return to the Underground to unravel the mystery of life, death, and the Goblin King-who he was, who he is, and who he will be.

Her younger brother Josef is cold, distant, and withdrawn, while Liesl can’t forget the austere young man she left beneath the earth, and the music he inspired in her. Although she is determined to look forward and not behind, life in the world above is not as easy as Liesl had hoped. Six months after the end of Wintersong, Liesl is working toward furthering both her brother’s and her own musical careers.
