Destiny, or perhaps mere chance, has chosen Shanis Malan to be the bearer of the Silver Serpent, the one prophesied to bring an end to decades of clan war, but a pretender has risen in the East, and enemies invade her homeland on all sides. Will she choose the path that leads back to the home she loves, or will she accept her destiny and face the Keeper of the Mists? David Debord’s memorable series continues in this second book of The Absent Gods series.
Keeper of the Mists was better-written than the first book in the series, and it was loads of fun. Character development continues to be good and the plot thickens when Shanis starts to wield the Silver Serpent and fulfill her destiny. Will definitely finish the series.
