Beautiful Darkness

By Margaret Stohl and Kami Garcia

Book Overview

Fall under the spell of the enthralling sequel to the New York Times bestselling gothic fantasy, Beautiful Creatures. Perfect for fans of Cassandra Clare and Maggie Stiefvater.

There were no surprises in Gatlin County. At least, that's what I thought. Turns out, I couldn't have been more wrong.

Ethan Wate used to think of Gatlin as a place where nothing ever changed. Then mysterious newcomer Lena Duchannes revealed a secret world of curses and Supernaturals with terrifying abilities. Lena showed him a Gatlin where impossible, magical, life-altering events happen. Sometimes life-ending.

And now that Ethan's eyes have been opened to the darker side of Gatlin, there's no going back. Haunted by strange visions only he can see, Ethan is pulled deeper into his town's tangled history and finds himself caught up in the dangerous network of underground passageways endlessly crisscrossing the South, where nothing is as it seems.

"A potent mix of the gothic, the mythic, and the magical ... With original characters, complex world building, and crackling prose, this is masterful storytelling." --Deborah Harkness, #1 New York Times bestselling author of A Discovery of Witches

Such a great book, Margaret really displays amazing plot lines and characters within the story and you'll definitely be captured within the series

Amazing!!

Absolutely loved the first book and this one was just as amazing!! Starting the third one today!!

Fantastic book

Fantastic book with lots of twists and turns.

Eh

Honestly I felt like this book was unnecessarily long. At some points it was just too much. A lot of pages for nothing really happening. I stopped after this book and just read a synopsis of the last 2 books. I won't be buying those as they don't seem to add much to the series.
