If you haven’t read THE GILDED WOLVES, I’d start with that one first. The book ends on a bit of a cliffhanger, so be prepared to immediately crave the third book. She gets inside each character’s head and heart and makes them so real. In addition, I LOVE Roshani Chokshi’s writing. That and their quest to find the lost artifact drives the story forward and made it nearly impossible to put this book down.

THE SILVERED SERPENTS, though, has the perfect balance of setting and story, and even has some cleverly placed details in the opening that helped to jog my memory about things that happened in the first book.įrom the very beginning, there’s a kind of desperation across all members of the team.

I struggled a little bit with THE GILDED WOLVES simply because there was so much worldbuilding that it got a little bit overwhelming and drowned out the story in a few places. Séverin and his broken, desperate quest to make everyone safe. Zofia and her very literal interpretations of things. The story goes so deeply into their minds and their feelings that I couldn’t help it. I feel like I fell in love with every member of Séverin’s team. This is one of those books that totally breaks your heart (somehow in a good way?). Returning to the dark and glamorous 19th century world of her New York Times instant bestseller, THE GILDED WOLVES, Roshani Chokshi dazzles us with another riveting tale as full of mystery and danger as ever in THE SILVERED SERPENTS.
