The conclusion to the gorgeous and lush Wintersong duology, Shadowsong by S. Jae-Jones.

Six months after the end of Wintersong, Liesl is working toward furthering both her brother's and her own musical careers. Although she is determined to look forward and not behind, life in the world above is not as easy as Liesl had hoped. Her younger brother, Josef, is cold, distant, and withdrawn, while Liesl can't forget the austere young man she left beneath the earth and the music he inspired in her.

When troubling signs arise that the barrier between worlds is crumbling, Liesl must return to the Underground to unravel the mystery of life, death, and the Goblin King - who he was, who he is, and who he will be.

What will it take to break the old laws once and for all? What is the true meaning of sacrifice when the fate of the world - or the ones Liesl loves - is in her hands?

All stars

A deeply engaging story, told from the perspective of a young woman who is brave and determined, yet possessed by her weaknesses as well. All of the denizens of this tale are very human, with all that entails -even those who are more than human, or less than human. Thus the dramatic tension in the pull within each character is sustained effortlessly throughout. There occasionally weak points in her descriptive language, but very few - few enough that it was seldom I took note of them: mostly I found it to be luminous and engrossing. There was one place where her prose began to take on a purple tint, as it were, but again singularly notable for being such an isolated occurrence. (I can't place exactly where these were: when one is listening to an audiobook, it's often difficult to keep track of such things - unless you write them down when you hear them. That wasn't something I thought of doing, in the moment. One doesn't, if one is thoroughly engrossed, after all!)

This is a story of transcendence and reflection

It's historical fiction, but there is too much added to the story for my liking. I think I would have enjoyed it more if it had stayed closer to the biblical account. I stopped listening at the last 45 minutes because it went too far.

I enjoyed this book! Its the sequel to Wintersong, I gave it 4 stars bc I did struggle to follow along in some places, and it seemed to jump around. altogether I think if you read the first you should definitely read the second. The story takes some unexpected turns and Shadowsong cleans up some unanswered questions from Wintersong.

So many feelings!!

It was not as good as the first one.

Still worth reading to see the end.

But unfortunately…. (Light SPOILERS!!)
Not as much romance as the last one.

Wish there was more interactions with Elizabeth and the goblin king.

Somewhat satisfying ending

This book held my attention, I struggled to put it down. I felt the emotional swings as the story was told. It’s bold, poetic, musically inclined and intense. I listened through book one and two in one week. It’s not the kind of love story I’m used to but it was lovely.

Music and poetry
