Summary

'Enthralling from beginning to shocking end' Hannah Whitten, bestselling author of For the Wolf

**THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES AND USA TODAY BESTSELLER**

In the luscious, dark conclusion to the series that began with One Dark Window, Elspeth must face the consequences of what she's wrought - perfect for readers of Hannah Whitten's For the Wolf and A Court of Thorns and Roses.

Elspeth and Ravyn have gathered most of the twelve Providence Cards, but the last, and most important one remains to be found: The Twin Alders.

If they are going to find it before the Solstice and cure the kingdom of the dark magic infecting it, they will need to journey beyond the dangerous mist-cloaked forest that surrounds their kingdom.

And the only one who can lead them there is the monster that shares Elspeth's head. The Nightmare. And he's not eager to share any longer.

Two Twisted Crowns was a New York Times and USA Today bestseller on week of publication in the US.

nice characters, perfect duration of books

it was really good! I loved the duration of the story! only two books so you don't get the chance to get bored! maybe I'd like a bit more depth to the characters but it's a small detail!

Unique and amazing

Really enjoyed both books. Something different, amazing storytelling, very cool main character. I loved that I didn’t know what was coming, I find many books predictable. Really amazing listen, honestly recommend

Hauntingly Beautiful

TWO TWISTED CROWNS is a hauntingly beautiful sequel and final addition to THE SHEPHERD KING dualogy. Very, very satisfying. I absolutely loved it and cannot wait for Rachel Gillig’s next book.

Exquisite

Enchanting and exquisite. I cried when it was over. The writing is so poetic, the narration utterly luscious.
Easily five stars.

Wow!

What an amazingly unique story. everything about this duet was pure perfection. I laughed, cried and smiled throughout the whole book, and fell in love with the character. This book will stick with me for a long time to come.

Mixed

If the dimwittedness of characters in the first book frustrated you then you'll struggle with this one.

Fantastic!

I'm so glad this was just a two book series. No long drawn out second book syndrome here. Excellent pacing and story. Just enough spice
