Next in the Brooklyn Brujas series of fantasy novels that follow three witch born sisters as they develop their powers and battle magic in their hometown and the worlds beyond. Lula must let go of the ghosts of her past to face the actual living dead of her present. Lula Mortiz feels like an outsider. Her sister's newfound Encantrix powers have wounded her in ways that Lula's bruja healing powers can't fix, and she longs for the comfort her family once brought her. Thank the Deos for Maks, her sweet, steady boyfriend who sees the beauty within her and brings light to her life. Then a bus crash turns Lula's world upside down. Her classmates are all dead, including Maks. But Lula was born to heal, to fix. She can bring Maks back, even if it means seeking help from her sisters and defying Death herself. But magic that defies the laws of the deos is dangerous. Unpredictable. And when the dust settles, Maks isn't the only one who's been brought back... "Cordova keeps the flame on high...

A quick and entertaining read
The Mortiz sisters are back and as usual wrecking havoc. This was a quick paced action packed read filled with Latino goodness.
3 stars Eh, i'm conflicted about this book. I wanted to like this book. I liked the story (or the idea of it), but at some point it was just ‘too much'. The book started out very promising, but a couple of chapters in and I was bored. The plot took a weird turn (I was in for witches, not all the other cliché creatures you can imagine) and the characters were inconsistent; where were Alex and Rose's personalities? The writing wasn't as good as in the first one. I'm hoping this was just a case of second book in the series syndrome and that the next one will be better because I really like Rose and I can't wait to see what happens to her when she goes into the kingdom of Adas.And the ending -__- Really?Also, Rishi was barely in this book and Nova, ♥.
