Caraval Book 2: Legendary by Stephanie Garber

Legendary (Caraval, #2)
Caraval Series Book 2

Stephanie Garber’s limitless imagination takes flight once more in the colorful, mesmerizing, and immersive sequel to the bestselling breakout debut Caraval



A heart to protect. A debt to repay. A game to win.



After being swept up in the magical world of Caraval, Donatella Dragna has finally escaped her father and saved her sister Scarlett from a disastrous arranged marriage. The girls should be celebrating, but Tella isn’t yet free. She made a desperate bargain with a mysterious criminal, and what Tella owes him no one has ever been able to deliver: Caraval Master Legend’s true name.



The only chance of uncovering Legend’s identity is to win Caraval, so Tella throws herself into the legendary competition once more—and into the path of the murderous heir to the throne, a doomed love story, and a web of secrets…including her sister's. Caraval has always demanded bravery, cunning, and sacrifice. But now the game is asking for more. If Tella can’t fulfill her bargain and deliver Legend’s name, she’ll lose everything she cares about—maybe even her life. But if she wins, Legend and Caraval will be destroyed forever.



Welcome, welcome to Caraval...the games have only just begun.



The sequel to Caraval and it had just as many twists and turns as the first one. Welcome back to Caraval! Just when you think you know the rules of the game, everything changes in a heartbeat. Tella is now in charge of the story and there is a lot more going on than I ever imagined. Turns out Tell made a deal in order to escape her father and save her sister Scarlett and now it is time for her to pay up. The problem? Well that mystery person wants the impossible" Legend's true name. How does she plan to get that when the players are all magically forbidden to tell her and most, if not all, don't know his true face and name? And impossible task, but when the world has magic in it and Tella's attitude nothing is truly impossible. 

Another Caraval game, but with a lot more at stake and mysteries to solve. The story becomes bigger than just Caraval and the game. This book had a lot of great elements that kept me on my toes as I kept reading. I was determined to solve the big riddle, but I was also determined to learn about more of these new characters that were introduced. Which I cannot say! Since seriously, SPOILERS! And this is one of those books that you can't have spoiled. Overall, if you liked the first one, you will definitely like this one as well. And though some riddles are solves, there are still a lot of questions unanswered and stories to wrap up. I cannot wait for Finale and to see how Scarlett and Tella find their happy endings once and for all.
