Maia remains a fabulous heroine whose journey is complex and messy This isn’t to say that Unravel the Dusk is a bad read or a disappointing conclusion to the story begun in Spin the Dawn. Unfortunately, however, the story’s grim turn robs the sequel the more entertaining adventure elements that made the first installment so much fun to read. After all, the pieces have been put into place for an epic conclusion – Maia has basically sold her soul to a demon, Edan has been stripped of the bulk of his magical abilities and war looms between two kingdoms. Sequel Unravel the Dusk does its best to wrap up the story of Maia Tamarin, and for the most part, the story succeeds. The novel felt like a breath of fresh air in the YA fantasy landscape, and readers everywhere were left breathlessly anticipating the series’ conclusion. Spin the Dawn, the first novel in Elizabeth Lim’s debut “Blood of Stars” duology, was a magical quest story, as our heroine hid her identity, battled messy court politics, and made three impossible dresses imbued with the power of a goddess to save her kingdom.
By Lacy Baugher 2 years ago Though it concludes the story of Spin the Dawn, Elizabeth Lim’s Unravel the Dusk is very much a different sort of book from its predecessor.
