Me, when the Nix starts up his riddles. Some Negatives Of course, not quite everything was sunshine and daisies every rose has its thorns, ey? Well, okay then, party pooper. Namely, the setting of this book is stagnant; the entire thing takes place in the castle which felt a bit like handing me a candy bar - then snatching it away and giving me celery, after the exciting forests of book one.
When the book promises goodies to come. Secondly, I think the pace was potentially, just fractionally, a bit slow. Mostly, everything is spot on. The way the book works, it leaves you with a vast knowledge of the mental situation of almost all the characters. This is a clever book for doing that considering the whole thing is just from the one perspective, it adds so many more layers to the story. Mr Book, Sir, you are clever. I really just enjoyed getting to know everyone better and definitely liked seeing Mai overcome mental barriers and blossom into the badass gal we all knew she could be.
She seriously is very cool, I mean, stab wounds? Mental confusion from someone infiltrating your mind? Somebody give the girl a cookie.

Again this is a great book and I'm looking forward to reading the next in the series. Nov 16, Cindy Wise rated it really liked it. I like the way Mae was able to defeat the Nix Nov 03, Michelle rated it liked it. The second instalment in the White Hart series, the Red Palace wasn't quite as gripping as book one. I still found myself turning the page, eager to see what happens next, but the palace wasn't as easy for me to imagine as the Waerg Woods were in book one. Often I found myself re-reading sections to picture it more clearly.

Although, certain parts no spoilers seemed to resolve a little too easily for my liking. Nov 10, Auburn Waves rated it liked it. Another decent installment, but still disconnected in the same way the first one was and the pacing was off. I don't know, it was alright, but not great. Aug 21, Kimmy Mcloughlin rated it it was amazing Shelves: Yay, its finally here. I have been counting down the days until this book was available.
The lovely Sarah Dalton contacted me asking if I would be interesting in reading and reviewing an arc copy of Red Palace. I almost bit her hand off at the opportunity lol. For those of you who are new to the White Hart series, you can read my review of the first book: This is one series you want to get your hands on! The first book left us hanging with a major cliffha Yay, its finally here. The first book left us hanging with a major cliffhanger. It sucked having to wait, but it was so worth it. Immediately drawn back into Mae's world, we continue on her journey as craft-born.
But I wish the author would be a bit more subtle with that and Mae's love interest. Best Desserts in DC December 14, On December 1, , a rally with over 50, participants was held to celebrate the establishment of Haifeng Soviet Government. She learns more of how to control her craft-born powers while being pulled into other people's fear 4 out of 5 stars.. I have been counting down the days until this book was available.
Mae has grown into a brave young woman, her life dramatically changed since we first met her and unfortunately for Mae, its just the tip of the iceberg. Her newest challenge is to face fear itself, supported by two great characters, Mae takes us on another epic adventure! Red Palace is an amazing fantasy story full of magic, feels and much much more.

I don't know how or when, but at some point in the series the author took a very simple adventure fantasy and twisted it into a deep, personal journey. Don't run away yet. Even though Mae only really interacts with three people f Wow Even though Mae only really interacts with three people for the majority of the novel, I wasn't bored for a single second. When I started this series I went in with low expectations, really I just wanted a simple fantasy to get me out of my reading slump.
The first novel, I didn't really believe that the characters had much depth to them, I still liked them much more than the characters from the Grisha trilogy , but I thought they were just simple characters. Boy, did this book surprise me. You know that pampered, thick-skulled prince? Not as oblivious or ignorant as you may have believed. Remember that mean girl Ellen? Turns out she had a VERY understandable reason for her behaviour not that it excuses her attitude.
What resurrects those who have gone? What remains as a mirror image in the mind? What is different for others but the same for you? Our own emotions can blind us from being able to read someone elses. My only problem with this book is still the odd dialogue and writing style, but I feel as though the author has improved since the last book.
Sep 05, Melissa rated it it was amazing. Mae Waylander is stuck in a cursed palace accompanied only by the soul of a man she hates and doesn't trust. There are secrets to uncover and fears to overcome. Mae must do both to save her beloved prince and the entire kingdom. And why is the creature from the Waerg Woods stalking her and what does it want? Sarah has drawn me right back into the world of Mae Waylander and her adventures.
Mae is so very believable! She's still grieving the loss of her father, she still carries the weight of secretly being the craft-born, and she's in love with her best friend. Red Palace has all the elements of epic fantasy. Sarah didn't skimp on any of them and she didn't disappoint. There's a respectable serving of fight scenes, heaping helpings of magic, and a great supporting cast. Not fair repeats six times and stomps feet! Waiting impatiently for Book 3 now. Because Cas and Mae have to get together and so very soon please.
Red Palace continues Mae's journey as she discovers the terrible weight of responsibility that comes from being craft born. It is a responsibility that she has long run from, but now she must face her fears and the fears of others if she is going to save the royal court. Author Sarah Dalton does a wonderful job of propelling Mae's story forward despite the fact that much of Red Palace solely focuses on Mae and a terrible curse. I missed the varied interactions of the other characters throughout t Red Palace continues Mae's journey as she discovers the terrible weight of responsibility that comes from being craft born.
I missed the varied interactions of the other characters throughout the book, and so didn't get as immersed in the story as I had in the first of this series, BUT I knew as I read that this second book was a much needed stepping stone in Mae's journey. Without giving the story away, I will say that I came away from it with 4 out of 5 stars because I missed the depth of bravery and adventure that characters other than Mae showed in the previous book, even though I know that they had to be a little less rounded for this story.

All in all a great book, and a really wonderful series! Sarah Dalton, someone once said: I greet you at the beginning of a great career. I send you only faith and gratitude for sharing your interior life and musings as well as entertaining stories. That is of course one of the secrets of good writing.

Keep it light and loose my lady. She is simple, straight forward and has written twenty or so books, all of which are best sellers. My point is that I think you are as good a writer except for a penchant towards being a bit too cerebral. Jan 24, A. Martin rated it really liked it. Well,this one is definitely different.

It was very different than what I thought would happen, but it was-is a good suspenseful read. I would recommend reading this, course you should read book one White Hart first. Mar 06, Darla rated it it was amazing. May 04, Meghan rated it liked it Shelves: The style of this book is quite different from the first in the series.
It is still enjoyable and the format works for the plot. It is more of a boon to move the entire series plot along rather than a story to stand on its own.
