Untamed Fate is the second book in the Wolf Bound part of the Magic Side universe. A few weeks ago, Savy had no idea that magic existed. Now she has to deal with her shadow magic combined with some other... unforeseen events. Combined with the shadow man who keeps invading her dreams and the dreams of those around her and she has quite a bit to deal with.
I don't think I liked this one as much as I liked the first one. Where we got a lot of build-up in the first book and kind of hints at a bigger picture, this one had us diving straight in headfirst. Savannah was a little bit harder to like, and there was an incredible amount of back and forth that could have been easily solved with a bit of surface level investigative work. Like, Jaxson is going to talk about the importance of family and everything but isn't going to talk about the possibility of her heritage? It seems like very deliberate ignorance of the most obvious solution.
But I still think it's a well-written book with a lot of great plot points. I'm excited to see how the next book pulls us deeper into the world. I just hope that we get more background and less of the obvious delays.
