After having read the first in the Darracia series I knew I had to read the second one. Book Review-Schism-The Battle for Darracia-Michael Phillip Cash Click in to read my review! If possible I enjoyed this at least if not more then the 1st one. I normally do not read novels geared toward a YA audience, but am making a definite exception with this series.
The King has been murdered and his son is having trouble allowing himself to be crowned. Evil forces abound in this one but there is also a whole lot of good. AND if you think I can be a tease not letting you know what is going to happen--Michael Phillip Cash is a MASTER--I am eagerly awaiting the 3rd book in this series to see what happens to the new young king who is thrown to his death(?) in a watery grave and to his Mom who has been sent off to be a slave!
And look for my review of Stillwell-A Haunting on Long Island, what a book!!
About the Book: (from Amazon)
The Darracia saga continues with all the key players spread out and searching for answers throughout the solar system. Prince V'sair struggles to hold his fractured kingdom together without help from his family. His stepbrother Zayden is on a vengeful hunt for his evil uncle Staf Nuen. Tulani navigates her two worlds trying to bring them together. Staf Nuen, the orchestrator of the original coup, is making unholy alliances with nefarious new allies. Like the comet zipping across the horizon, all the different factions are heading for a collision course that will test both their faith and power.

I have gotten more into YA books lately and enjoy them. I had not heard of this series. Thanks for sharing and the teasers!
I need a book geared toward the OA (old adult) crowd. LOL... This book would be one my Granddaughters would enjoy and one of them has a birthday coming up soon. This would be a little something extra to give her.
Sounds like a good series! Putting them on my to read list!
I still read mostly YA books. Looks like this is a nice series.
It's always great when you enjoy the second book more than the first...it keeps the momentum up for the rest of the series!
Oh goodness, this doesn't look quite like something I would read, but you did a beautiful review of it!
I have not read a YA book in awhile, but I'm always looking for a good series to add to my TBR pile!
I haven't even read the books and I want to know what happens to the young king and his mom :)
This looks like a wonderful book. This is totally up my husbands alley!
Sounds like a real page turner!!
I am putting this on my son's present list. He would absolutely love it :)
I prefer YA books but I also like my romantic ones! This books sounds like one I would love to read!
My dearest son's friend is into sci fi. He's a teen and I always have a hard time figuring out what to get him. I think he'd enjoy this book.
Sounds like a goody, sharing with my husband like now.
I try but I can't really get into the young adult books. I might watch it but sometimes they are just too cheesy for me. But I'll definitely pass this along to someone I know would love it!
Sounds like a good book, another one to add to my list.
Another awesome review and another great book you always have the best ones.
That's good that he's mastered the art of not revealing what's going to happen. I think that's a huge part of what makes a book good!
I think its great when you stray from your typical genre reading to find that's it's a super read, nothing like it !!
Another fantastic book review! You rock!
I tend to go for YA fiction, and this is right up my alley!
I love anything that involves a king. I'm like you or actually, I almost find some young adult stuff kind of boring but this sounds interesting.
This sounds amazing. Definitely the kid of book I like to read.
