In the next chapter of a fantasy series featuring five unforgettable sisters--the warrior, the magician, the lover, the zealot, and the gossip--an insidious threat jeopardizes a fragile peace. Four years have passed since the five royal sisters--daughters of the king--worked together to restore their father to health and to the throne while fracturing the bonds among themselves almost irreparably. Only Bluebell remains at home, dutifully serving as heir to her father's kingdom. Rose has been cast aside by her former husband and hides in exile with her aunt, separated forever from her beloved daughter, Rowan. Ash wanders the distant wastes with her teacher, learning magic and hunting dragons, determined that the dread fate she has foreseen for herself and her loved ones never comes to pass. Ivy rules over a prosperous seaport, married to an aged husband she hates yet finding delight in her two young sons and a handsome captain of the guard. And as for Willow, she hides the most dangerous secret of all--one that could destroy all that the sisters once sought to save. The saga begins in . . . DAUGHTERS OF THE STORM "Five stubborn royal sisters continue to pursue their intersecting and often conflicting destinies in this follow-up to the Viking-inspired epic fantasy Daughters of the Storm. . . . The story gathers more depth and originality in this solidly action-packed middle volume, with the promise of more plot development--and probably a hefty dose of tragedy--to come."--Kirkus Reviews

Rezension von Janelle EdwardsSisters of the Fire is the second book in the Blood and Gold series and I loved it as much as the first book in the series, Daughters of the Storm. The book is well written and fast-paced as you follow the five sisters on their journeys. This book picks up 4 years after the sisters worked together to restore their father to health and to the throne. Bluebell stays behind with her father serving as heir to the throne. Rose is hiding with her aunt and separated from her daughter Rowan, Ash wanders with her teacher learning magic and hunting ,while Ivy is married to an aged husband and has two young sons. The first sister, Willow, hides the most dangerous secret that could destroy all of the sisters. The story is has magic, love, betrayal and even dragons. I highly recommend this book and series if you are a fan of historical fantasy. You could read this as a stand-alone but you lose a lot of the history and background of the sisters that led them to this point. There is a third book in the series scheduled for release at TBD date and I can't wait to see what Kim Wilkins has in store for theses sisters. Thank you to NetGalley and Random House Publishing Group for my free digital copy for my honest review.
