A California Young Reader Medal–winning seriesSophie befriends the mythical Alicorn and puts her mysterious powers to the test in this enchanting second book in the Keeper of the Lost Cities series.
Sophie is settling in nicely to her new home and her new life in the world of the lost cities. And it helps that living at Havenfield means getting to spend time with rare, precious species—including the first female Alicorn, who shows herself to Sophie and trusts no one but her.
Sophie is tasked with helping to train the magical creature so that the Alicorn can be revealed to the people of the lost cities as a sign of hope, and Sophie wants to believe that the recent drama and anguish is gone for good.
But the secrets buried deep in Sophie’s memories remain, and before long before she’s back in incredible danger, risking everything to find the answers to questions that could save not only her life, but the life of someone close to her…
Review:
Exile is the second book in the keeper of lost cities series. Sophie discovers an alicorn which is significantly rated and very important to the survival of the elven race. Sophie also learns she is broken, and the black swan is trying to teach her how to fix herself, and ultimately by doing so, she can help others who are otherwise lost forever. Sophie struggles for the first part of this book with the PTSD of being captured and is tortured with headaches and lack of sleep. I found it intriguing all the little bit of clue figuring out that the black swan leaves for Sophie and the heart-wrenching trama of what transpires with characters when their minds are broken. A great second book. Exile is where I read so far in the series multiple times, so I am determined to continue with the rest of the books.
