数百年前,来往于伦敦世界间的大门打开,世界平衡稳定。可好景不长,人类对权力的渴求、对魔力无止尽的索求、欲望的膨胀招致黑伦敦陷落,魔法随之消失。人们关上了往来的大门裹足不前,指派所剩无几的被魔法选中的“旅行者”穿梭其间,以信件交流信息。

告别凯尔后,女飞贼莱拉独自出海,登上掠私船“夜峰号”,却意外了结识与王室关系匪浅的神秘船长阿鲁卡德,一次次突发事件再次将莱拉带入王室。 而另一边,与莱共享生命的凯尔困于王都,对莱的愧疚、国王与王后的责备以及他内心的愤怒压得他喘不过气来。 此时,一场在红伦敦举行的魔法盛会,让久别的众人再次相聚。众人沉浸在重逢的喜悦与悲伤之中,竟无人发现白伦敦的间谍悄然潜入红伦敦,意图不轨……

reviewed A Gathering of Shadows by V. E. Schwab (Shades of Magic, #2)

A decent bit of light fantasy adventure.

3 stars

On a par with the first. A mostly fun romp. Drags a little in the middle, and is marred for me by the occasional use of very modern turns of phrase which I find very distracting (e.g. someone in a regency-ish era London claiming they're good at "multi-tasking").
