The Unfailing Light
Katerina Trilogy #2
by Robin Bridges
Release Date: October 9, 2012
Synopsis from Goodreads
Having had no choice but to use her power has a necromancer to save Russia from dark forces, Katerina Alexandrovna, Duchess of Oldenburg, now wants to forget that she ever used her special powers. She's about to set off to pursue her lifelong dream of attending medical school when she discovers that Russia's arch nemesis--who she thought she'd destroyed--is still alive. So on imperial orders, Katerina remains at her old finishing school. She'll be safe there, because the empress has cast a potent spell to protect it against the vampires and revenants who are bent on toppling the tsar and using Katerina for their own gains. But to Katerina's horror, the spell unleashes a vengeful ghost within the school, a ghost more dangerous than any creature trying to get in.
Why I am waiting....
I read the first book, The Gathering Storm, and really enjoyed it. (You can read my review here.) I can’t wait to see what happens next!

Wait...Russia AND necromancy? How did I not know these things were in these books. I'm definitely going to have to read these at some point. Thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteI haven't read The Gathering Storm yet, but I've heard great things! And a series set in Russia?? That alone is intriguing enough to pick up this series! Great pick!

I haven't heard of this series but it sounds really great. Russia is surely a wonderful setting and I always loved necromancers. This is definitely going on my TBR pile :D
