MY THOUGHTS 
A fantasy with history added.  This book comes after Winterwood .  Silverwolf's world is like ours. The difference is our world doesn't have magic and the creatures that come from it.   The book not only contains a magical world but a human world too. The book read rather slow for me.  I would suggest you read Winterwood first.  The book gives a fairly good historical fantasy read for those who like fantasy books.  The author gives the reader 19th Century England with a magical twist.  I don't know if this Ravensworld has a dark shadow over it or if it is a blessing to all.  The author does give a lot of detail that will bring you imagination buds up front.  The book has a lot of action and you may even wipe a tear from your cheek.  I had a bit of a hard time believing in love at first sight with all the things going on.  Winterworld was about what was to come and Ravensworld is about what has transpired.

If you enjoy fantasy, magic, magical creatures in a 19th Century England setting then you will enjoy this. 
I just didn't care as much for it, maybe because I should have read the first book before this one.

Grab a copy and decide for yourself.

I received this book from Night Owl Reviews and voluntarily decided to review it.

I would give this book 3 STARS.
