Riassunto

In this second book in the Lynburn Legacy, the sorcerous roots of Sorry-in-the-Vale have been exposed. Now no one in the town is safe, and everyone has to choose sides. Will the townspeople (magical and not) become "owned" by the sorcerers who believe it is their right to rule? Or will it continue in a more modern vein, with the presence of the sorcerers playing a quieter--and much less violent--role. If Kami Glass has anything to say about it, evil will not win. Despite having given up her own piece of magic, she is determined to do everything she can to make a difference. And whether they want to or not, her circle of friends (and potential boyfriends) will not be able to help but follow her and go along with her unusual schemes and battle tactics.

Recensione:

"'I love Sarah Rees Brennan's writing. I love the plots, I love the slightly creepy style and the interwoven folklore. And most of all I love the characters. It's so refreshing to read a story where the relationships are not all about boy meets girl, but female friendships and family as well." The Book Bag
"There are plenty of other reasons why I loved this book. The author's dialogue is as snarky and sparkling as ever. While reading Unspoken I was laughing one minute and terrified the next!... After having looked forward to it for so long, I'm so pleased to say that I loved this book. Oh, also, just a warning about the ending. My heart broke." My Favourite Books
"It has all the elements I have come to expect from a SRB book: strong female characters, interesting paranormal elements, diversity in terms of race and sexual identity in the presentation of its characters (Kami is half-Japanese for example; one of her friends is LGBT) and a sense of humor and wit that makes almost every page extremely funny." The Book Smugglers
