"Seventeen years ago, an eclipse cloaked the kingdom of Relhok in perpetual darkness. In the chaos, an evil chancellor murdered the king and queen and seized their throne. Luna, Relhok’s lost princess, has been hiding in a tower ever since. Luna’s survival depends on the world believing she is dead.

But that doesn’t stop Luna from wanting more. When she meets Fowler, a mysterious archer braving the woods outside her tower, Luna is drawn to him despite the risk. When the tower is attacked, Luna and Fowler escape together. But this world of darkness is more treacherous than Luna ever realized.

With every threat stacked against them, Luna and Fowler find solace in each other. But with secrets still unspoken between them, falling in love might be their most dangerous journey yet.

With lush writing and a star–crossed romance, Reign of Shadows is Sophie Jordan at her best."

12% (sorry for the late start): (view spoiler)[ Okay, this is all fascinating, a 17-year long eclipse. I am a bit skeptic, however, about this lack of sunlight. I don't think this one hour of gloom they get would be nearly enough to sustain life.

Also, I wasn't expecting this to have zombies... Not sure I like this fact. (hide spoiler)]

15% (End of Chapter 5): (view spoiler)[ huh, look at that. She is blind! Wonder why those two that raised her have been lying to her. Is there even an eclipse? Or was that an excuse? (hide spoiler)]

20% (view spoiler)[ Okay, I need some explanations, fast. Why is she being kept in the tower? What is the danger? The zombies? Who is ruling in her place? (hide spoiler)]

done! (view spoiler)[ huh, that was a bit predictable... The guy is the Chancellor's son, so a star-crossed love, aaaaand a cliffhanger to boot. (hide spoiler)]
