Book Blurb:

Life as I knew it ended the day I accepted my fate.

In its place is an existence even the wildest imagination could never fathom. Strange creatures walk among us, plotting our demise, and I’ve come to find that the fate of our world rests squarely on my shoulders. We’re all in danger and I’m trying to figure out how to make it through each day. The key to my survival is a man I can’t figure out. As dangerous as the darkest fae, I have no choice but to work with him to stop the prophecy that’s foretold to be the ruination of mankind. Carrick Byrne continues to be my only source of information, but he doles it out as he sees fit. He intrigues and scares me in equal measure, yet I can’t help but be attracted to him. And the more I discover about him, the more it becomes clear he feels the same. As we travel to Faere in search of answers, we find that every piece of information leads to more questions, that every question leads to a new piece of the puzzle, and that, most importantly, no one can be trusted. The more secrets we uncover, one thing is certain— if we have any chance of saving the world, we have to do it together. A Discovery of Secrets and Fate is book two of the Chronicles of the Stone Veil series and is best enjoyed if read in series order.

Review:

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars

A Discovery of Secrets and Fate is the second book in the Chronicles of the Stone Veil series by Sawyer Bennett. The book is not a stand-alone so I'd suggest reading the first book before picking up this one. I didn't and read ADOSAF without having read the other book and for a couple of chapters, I was lost. It wasn't very difficult to understand what was happening and after a while, I was reading the book as if I had. The book ends with a cliffhanger, but considering that we know that 3 more books are coming, I am not worried about what is going to happen next. Just curious as to how the story will go on after that. 

The story is a little slow and for a large percentage of the book, we only got small pieces of progress here and there. Speaking of progress, there is some in the romance department too. At least that's where I hope Finley and Carrick's relationship is headed. Finley spends a lot of time doubting Carrick and I was wondering if this was going to continue in the third book.  The last 30% of the book is where the story speeds up and where the setup for the upcoming book is happening. If I had any doubts as to whether I was going to read the third book, they were erased. We were introduced to new characters, some of them were very exciting, and I am hoping to see them again. The secondary characters have also a lot of potential and I would love to see more of them. 

The one flaw of the book is the heroine. She is not a bad character, but there is something about her that doesn't click for me. I am not 100% sold on her. Maybe the problem is that she is a typical YA paranormal heroine despite the fact that she is 10 years older at 28. One of the things I am hoping to see in book 3 is her learning to actually use whatever powers she has and also lean on her backup because clearly her doing whatever she wants is not working very well. I get that she is thrown into a weird situation, but one would think that she was going to ask for help or use her brain in a very certain situation instead of trying to do everything on her own. 

Overall, I can say that I have positive feelings about the book and I would recommend it, advising you to read The Revelation of Light and Dark first.
