(Book #2 of The Thin Veil series)
Rating: 🍁🍁🍁🍁
Caveat: the author is my cousin and kinda also a little bit my boss, so I'm not sure how seriously you'll take my review. Can you trust me that I'm going to be honest? Because I promise that I am. :)
I really enjoyed Into the Fire, you guys. I'm a huge fan of the urban and contemporary fantasy genre, and this novel is a fun addition to it. It's your classic "quest for a mythical object" plot, with some entertaining twists and lots of neat tales and lore along the way.
One of the things I enjoyed most was the fact that Cedar has trouble adjusting to life among the Tua. While she's happy to be reunited with Finn and wants to make a place for herself and Eden, it's not a smooth transition. This is something that many other "Hey look, I'm suddenly in a new world" books seem to forget to take into account.
This isn't a heavy read - don't go into it expecting a lot of angst (though there is some) or darkness. Instead, it's fast-paced, fun and full of adventure.
