Dreamdark: Silksinger is the second in the Dreamdark series and I haven’t read the first. I hate it when that happens. But TW assured me that I didn’t need to read the first one… and she was right, though I probably would have found it easier to dig into this one had I read the first. I found the first few chapters a little slow and confusing because of the introduction of so many new to me characters and situations. Once I got through that initial slowness, I was hooked.
Now I have to go back and read the first one.
(Also loved the author’s note at the end – the evil character was named for a comment captcha form. That’s awesome! I like it when funky captchas turn into something good.)
