Synopsis

Beyond the Emperor's law
In the city of Elantra, the law is upheld by a few groups, and the most feared are the Wolves—the Emperor’s executioners. The newest member of this elite force is Severn Handred.

Granted a leave of absence to pursue information about his unknown past, Severn joins a mission to an enclave well outside the boundaries of the Empire. And he will be in danger the entire time. Still, the instincts that led him to the Wolves and the sense of duty that keeps him there can’t be discarded as easily as the tabard he wears.

While he's in the heart of the West March, enmeshed in a tangled web of mysteries that have been held for centuries, Severn's belief in justice is going to be tested. It's one mortal man and his single ally against a community of immortals who will kill to keep their secrets. But they don't know who they're up against.

Sword and Shadow, is the second book in the Wolves of Elantra series, the prequel/companion series to the Chronicles of Elantra books.

Goodreads review by Katyana on December 14, 2022

I loved this. We get to know so much about Severn, and man, I cried. In the end, I just about bawled my eyes out. I'm sad too because this Severn - confident, joking - we don't get to see a lot of in the main Elantra series. There's so much hurt between Severn and Kaylin. I hope they really find thei......more

Goodreads review by Christina on January 12, 2022

This was a very satisfying read. As we progress in this prequel series, the more the pieces fall into place. As the book hasn’t been released yet, I’ll keep the spoilers to myself for now. I look forward to rereading this one in it’s finished copy form.......more

Goodreads review by Suz on December 19, 2022

I feel like I'm getting more information about wtf is going on in that world in this spinoff series than I am getting anymore from the main series. At this juncture I'd rather listen to one of these. Bulk input day.......more
