Graci Kim
Best-selling author Rick Riordan presents the second book in Graci Kim's best-selling Gifted Clans trilogy, now in paperback!For Riley Oh, life as the Godrealm’s last fallen star is not all it’s cracked up to be. Her new divine heritage doesn’t even come with cool magical powers; half of her friends and family (including her parents) can’t remember her; and to top it all off, the entire Gom clan is mad at her for killing the Cave Bear Goddess and stripping away their healing abilities.But when their anger boils over and a group of witches curse Riley’s home, she knows it’s up to her to restore magic back to her clan – even if it means sneaking into the Spiritrealm.Luckily, Riley has some backup. Along with her sister, Hattie, Riley meets Dahl, a heaven-born boy with shockingly white hair and a fondness for toilets who might not be telling the whole truth about who he is. Together they’ll fight vicious monsters, discover dark underwater worlds, and race to save the land of the dead from a fate that no one could have foreseen.And this time, Riley won’t let anything get in her way. Because she can’t shake the feeling that something terrible is coming their way – and the gifted community is going to need all the powers they can get.Endorsed by Rick Riordan, author of Percy Jackson and the Olympians, soon to be a series on Disney+.

"A great continuation of an ok book. The second book in this series is better than the first. It wraps up the heartbreaking plot twist of the first while having its own heartbreaking and heartwarming plot twist. Then ending makes you want to instantly grab the third and begin reading

"A really good book! I listened to this as an audiobook at NetGalley. It’s actually the second book of The Gifted Clans trilogy. I haven’t read the first book but it didn’t matter much because every time the book references the first book, it will give a brief explanation or history so you won’t get lost. It combines the modern world and Korean mythology which I haven’t really read about before, although it is quite similar to Greek myth in some ways. It was exciting and the narrator gave life to the characters in a way where it feels like you’re watching a film rather than listening to an audiobook. I honestly didn’t notice time while listening to this because it really is interesting to me. The ending was good too, it opens the idea of how the third book would unfold but the author was careful enough not to leave the ending a cliffhanger. It was full of magical creatures too so if that’s your cup of tea, consider this a recommendation. Definitely one of my new favourites!<br/><br/><br/>This is still available on NetGalley until the 28th of June and when I requested it, it became available to me the following morning so if you want to give this a listen, do so quickly!"
