This is one of the most unique and at times deeply frustrating duologies I've ever read. If you choose to read the series, it would be good to begin with an open mind. It is quite different from Seraphina's story and though this was disappointing at first the story of Tess does find its own rhythm. In the end this is simply the tale of a girl who comes into her own

I have always loved Seraphina since the first time I read it it had always lingered, but now that I am an adult with money I decided to buy all the books in that world that was available. I loved it, and I just spent this last week reading constantly in my free time. In the Serpents's wake I believe has left the most impact on me as a whole. I just finished it and am not writing this review with tears in my eyes. I can't wait to travel with Tess or whoever comes next in this beautiful world.
