Iron Flame - The Empyrean book 2 by Rebecca Yarros

I started reading this book over last weekend and finished it last night. So the riders are back, new and old. The second book of the Empyrean series revolves around Violet, who has survived her first year despite the attempts on her life and now she has been thrown into the deep end again to save the people she loves from an enemy, nobody believed existed. Long! That's what I can say about this book. If you haven't read the first one, then be warned, there's mild spoilers ahead. Violet and Xaden try to work on their relationship and it gets to a point where you want to smack them both upside the head and tell them to either be together or just break up. Many secrets are revealed, some shocking, some not so much. There is a lot of description of the land, the history, sometimes a bit repetitive and some very long paragraphs. I couldn't remember much and maybe that's not a good thing. It's good to see Dain understand the truth. My favourite characters...
