Description
Kiram fought his family and Cadeleonian bigots to remain in the Sagrada Academy to prove himself as a mechanist and to dispel the deadly shadow curse that threatens to destroy his upperclassman, Javier Tornesal. But when his efforts provoke retaliation, Kiram's family and home are endangered. Both Kiram and Javier risk everything in a desperate gambit to combat the curse. But they never imagined their battle would come so soon, or that it would be led by the one person they trust most of all. Contains mature themes.

I truly regret that I waited so long to read The Lord of the White Hell. This has easily moved into my top five favorite works of fantasy, alongside David Eddings’ “Belgariad” and Mercedes Lackey’s “Last Herald Mage.” It is that well done, and I read the book in a single day after
In book one, readers met Kiram, a Haldiim, and Javier, a Duke hunted by a powerful curse and haunted by a terrible power. Book one took place in the Cadeleonian Sagrada Academy, but here we travel to Kiram’s home city. Javier and Kiram learn the truth about the white hell, and it puts their lives in danger. Book one introduced the world and characters, but here the plot thickens (mwahahah!) and the pace accelerates exponentially. Javier and Kiram will have to make hard choices and painful sacrifices to remain true to each other, and prevent the white hell from falling into the wrong hands.
I cannot say enough good things about how wonderful these two novels were! I was engrossed from the start and will no doubt re-read them again and again. And though the major story arc is resolved, Javier and Kiram’s adventure is really just beginning. I truly hope Ginn Hale writes more novels in this series. This world is as amazing as Valdemar, and deserves many, many more stories.
