Now she is beginning to question their decisions, especially how they handle the legacy of her father Leck, who who ruled through his Grace—a special talent for mind-altering—and his taste for darkness and violence. Bitterblue needs to know Monsea’s past to lead it into the future, so she begins exploring the city sreets at night, disguised and alone. As she does, she meets two thieves, who hold a key to the truth of Leck's reign. And one of them, with a Grace that he hasn't yet identified, holds a key to her heart.
This is the third book in this series, and it goes back to more of the story told in the first book. I really liked it, although it had been some time since I read Graceling. This is a fun book if you like adventure and magic, mystical books. A very good series. I am hoping for more books from this author.
