Really nice connection to the previous book. Enjoy the two battles Emily has to face each time she utilizes the amulet. This book is a real page-turner, as I found m heart racing to figure out what will happen next. ( )

Reason for Reading: Next in series. Cybils nominee

Comments: It's been awful long wait since the first book in this series that I had to sit down and think a bit before I dove into this eagerly anticipated sequel. While Book 1 was all dark and foreboding, this second in the, I assume, trilogy gets right into the action. We find out all the answers and reasons for Emily's attachment with the Amulet and what her quest must be whether she wants it or not. Her brother also has an important part to play in saving this world. New friends are met and the enemy is shown in it's full evil wickedness. A compelling, fast-paced, action packed story with plenty of odd creatures, magic and hand-to-hand combat. Also an intriguing story, beautifully illustrated and the author has created a fascinating world. I just hope we don't have to wait another 20 months for Book Three! ( )

The second installment of the Amulet graphic novels, this book was just as good as the first. The story moves forward at a fast pace and the pictures are wonderfully done. New characters are introduced and the plot deepens. Ready for the next to be published. ( )

Merideth says: While I was somewhat intrigued by the first volume of this series, the second installment has me begging for more. As Emily and her family journey deeper into the mysterious land of Alledia and meet more of it's creatures, their reasons for being there become more clear. Emily doesn't submit to the destiny's others have claimed is hers, and focuses on her family and her own strength. Little brother Navin gets more of a starring role here, and it's nice to see his part fleshed out. The artwork is absolutely stunning, and I would highly reccomend this series to fantasy fans. ( )

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0439846838, Paperback)

Emily and Navin's mother is still in a coma from the arachnopod's poison, and there's only one place to find help: Kanalis, the bustling, beautiful city of waterfalls. But when Em, her brother, and Miskit and the rest of the robotic crew aboard the walking house reach the city, they quickly realize that seeking help is looking for trouble, dangerous trouble.

The Elf King's son, Trellis, is still after them, but this time he's accompanied by a mysterious and dangerous guard, Luger. Then an equally mysterious fox, Leon Redbeard, steps in to help. This new fox friend offers to take Em on the perilous trip up Demon's Head Mountain to find the antidote she needs. Miskit is suspicious, Navin is worried about being left behind, and Emily is in the toughest spot of all. She's got to let loose the power of the amulet—without losing herself!
