Reader reviews:
"Finally, it was my turn to read this amazing book, and Hurtig has done it again! Another thrilling Swedish fantasy to add to my collection. I’ve been longing for this continuation since I read The Red Raven, and I was not disappointed. Strong women, forbidden romance, and exciting intrigues fill the pages. Hurtig opens up and deepens the story that began in The Red Raven, and now it takes unexpected turns – just hold on tight. I love how The Blue Lily stands on its own and that the plot is impossible to predict. The language is fantastic, as usual, and I adore the unique world-building! Once again, I’m left wanting more after the last page is turned. When is the next book coming?"
"The series about the Raven Sisters has quickly become one of my favourites, and I’m really looking forward to the next instalment in the series!"
"The Blue Lily is the sequel to The Red Raven, which is a big favourite of mine, and The Blue Lily was a brilliant follow-up – I loved it! It’s almost impossible to describe how much I enjoyed this book. The plot grabbed me immediately and made me read the book in one sitting – I couldn’t stop. The story offers suspense, entertainment, friendship, some action, and, of course, strong women. All of this made me love the book! The author’s writing is just as captivating as in her other books, and the characters have all won my heart."
"Hurtig does it again! As wonderful and magical as the first book, the sequel is just as fantastic. The Blue Lily is a suspense-filled historical fantasy that is absolutely impossible to put down. The pacing of the plot strikes a perfect balance between slow and fast-paced. The pages fly by, yet they also contain many deep dialogues and well-thought-out scenes that hold the reader's interest. This book has everything – suspense, action, friendship, thrilling romantic moments, humour, and a gripping adventure. Everything intertwines into one and creates a fantastic reading experience! Hurtig writes in a descriptive and lively way, sparking the reader’s curiosity with her stories. The Blue Lily is utterly irresistible, and I strongly recommend it.
