Summary: Why do we need sequels?
Review: When reading the first book in this series I was pleasantly surprised. Very nice and original plot. A five star book in my opinion. The best part being that it was a book by itself, no sequels, everything was perfectly finished, no open ending, the villain(s) were dead or beaten. Recently I found out that there were sequels to this book. I decided to buy the second book, and immediateley after I started reading it I got a little bit disappointed. The plot is so extremely obvious that while reading the book you are wondering on what page Ben will find the truth of the matter. The reader knows this from almost page one. Nightshade (supposed to be dead in the fairy world with the ending of book one) miraculously re-appears. In short, not at all what I expected after reading part one.
