The final installment in the instant NYT bestselling new fantasy duology from Ransom Riggs, author of the #1 global phenomenon Miss Peregrine’s Peculiar Children series.
Vol. 2 resumes in the aftermath of the cliffhanger that ended Vol. 1. Leopold, Emmet, and Isabel have begun to unravel the mystery of the ring and what, exactly, has been going on with Leopold's family and their connection to Sunderworld.
But Leopold is salty about the way Sunder has treated him and skeptical that his mother really meant for him to have the mysterious ring. He secretly wishes he could walk away from everything and start living a normal life with his newfound courage. But now the magical world that wanted nothing to do with him won’t leave him alone. The Department, fascinated by the ring, is hounding him to come back. There's even a magical talent agent who won't take no for an answer.
When the ring activates during a terrifying Noxum attack, enabling Leopold to perform another magical act of heroism, he knows he can't turn his back on Sunder. Wherever he goes, the magic seems to follow.
The answers to all his questions lie in the Lyceum’s well-protected archives, in his mother's letters, and perhaps in the unlikeliest, most unmagical of people: Leopold’s father.
Praise for Sunderworld, Vol. 1: The Extraordinary Disappointments of Leopold Berry
An instant New York Times Bestseller!
★ "Riggs’s incandescent storytelling, exquisite worldbuilding, and vivid characterization kick off a propulsive series starter that subverts the chosen-one trope via a self-made antihero who learns to choose himself. If Leopold finds more questions than answers, readers will be heartened by the promise of more adventure and intrigue following this whirlwind opener."—Publishers Weekly, starred review
★ "Like the bittersweet Los Angeles it occupies, Leopold's offbeat Sunderworld is a little grimy and a little broken, but the magic is real and will stick with you."—Booklist, starred review
"Riggs' writing is tight and well paced. Some incredible action scenes leap off the pages, and Sunder is a blur of dangerous situations, well-drawn characters, and magical devices. The ending will make readers wish they couldimmediately reach for the second volume.... A fully imagined fantastical world with compelling characters and a nail-biting cliffhanger."—Kirkus Reviews
