(The Artrifact Hunters #2)
~♤♡The curse is spreading. The clock is ticking. And the only way out, is through blood, magic, and secrets♧◇~
Alister, Clara, and their unlikely allies now embark on the perilous search for the three ancient artifacts for the ritual-The Healer's goblet, The Blood Mirror and The Hirudin Dagger.
These artifacts hold the key to breaking the curse once and for all. Their journey will take them through glittering halls of wealth and hidden chambers of cruelty, where danger waits at every turn.
As the line between salvation and ruin blurs, and every choice carries weight, trust and feelings may prove as vital as any weapon.
Because some bonds cut deeper than curses.

about defiance // matthew fairchild {2}
{ snap, shatter, and howl pt. ii: being the sequel to mirror shards } Four months on from the Mandikhor attacks, Sydney Herondale is sure she's done. She's fallen in love (with Matthew Fairchild), she's starting to heal, both literally and metaphorically, from the wounds dealt to her in Romania during her travel year, she's got a flat in the City and with the mystery of her grandfather's identity solved, her research project is done and she can rest now. It's over. Or so she tells herself. You see, Sydney is magic. First that blinding rage when she goes into battle, then her strange ability to go ignored when she doesn't want people looking, and now, suddenly, she's starting to see magic, the ebb and flow and current of it like brushstrokes on Van Gogh's canvas. And if her grandfather's whispered, cryptic words are right, somehow all of these are meant to meld together to make...what? Well, she'd better find out, if she wants to make sure the magic is hers to control and hers alone. Not, of course, that anyone's making that easy.Complete
