My Thoughts:
If you have not yet read Nevermore, go run to the bookstore/library and get a copy. Yes, it is that awesome.
Enshadowed takes place two months after the end of Nevrmore. Isobel is carefully devising her plan to get to Baltimore and find the Poe Toaster so that she can save Varen. But she is not alone in her planning. Funny and clever, Gwen is the ultimate best friend. She goes out of her way to help Isobel achieve her goal.
Isobel does manage to reenter the dream world. But it is darker this time, more twisted. As for the ending…wow. It was completely unexpected.

I have read a couple sequels this year, and they have all been disappointed. But, Enshadowed was amazing. It was dark and suspenseful and, most impartantly, it was SO worth the wait.
