The Shadow Cabinet: the bewitching sequel to the sensational SUNDAY TIMES number 1 bestseller and new instalment of the HER MAJESTY’S ROYAL COVEN fantasy series: Book 2 (HMRC)

Product Information

Sharp, funny, provocative, and joyous, Juno Dawson's sequel reimagines everything you think you knew about her coven and her witches in a story that spans continents and dives deep into the roots of England and its witchcraft. I was instantly taken by her debut, Boy Parts, and, while Penance is very different, I’ve realised that Clark understands precisely how vicious, how complicated, young women can be. Leonie’s brother is on the trail, but doesn’t know the danger he now faces, and so she sets off to bring him home and bring Hale to justice. In the second installment of Juno Dawson's "irresistible" fantasy trilogy (Lana Harper), a group of childhood friends and witches must choose between what is right and what is easy if they have any hope of keeping their coven—and their world—from tearing apart forever. This makes it a bureaucratic institution, and well-founded rage against the current state of affairs in our country is a central theme in the series.

Suffering from amnesia, Ciara can't remember what she's done—but if she wants to survive, she must fool Niamh's adopted family and friends; the coven; and the murky Shadow Cabinet—a secret group of mundane civil servants who are already suspicious of witches. The characters that were so carefully and diligently created in the first book are given their own stories in the second book, and it is a blast to read. And then there’s the small matter of Dabney Hale: freshly escaped from Grierlings prison, he’s on the hunt for a mythical object that will give him unimaginable power.
