Dream Thieves (Vol. 2 The Raven Saga)

Dream Thieves , the second volume of the Raven Saga , brings back the wild imagination and thrilling twists that only an original author like Maggie Stiefvater can create.

Alongside Blue, the raven boys—the privileged Gansey, the tortured Adam, the spectral Noah, and the dark and dangerous Ronan—continue their search for the legendary Welsh king Glendower. But their explorations face a severe setback as secrets, dreams, and nightmares begin to weaken the ley line—an invisible channel of energy that connects sacred places and can lead them to the king.

Could this be why the mystical forest of Cabeswater has inexplicably disappeared? Who is the mysterious Gray Man, and why is he searching for the Greywaren, a relic that allows objects to be extracted from dreams? And what does this have to do with the elusive Ronan?

As Blue and the raven boys search for answers to these and other questions, the danger surrounding them becomes increasingly real, and they'll need to put all their chips on the line in this enigmatic adventure.

“As incredibly spectacular as the first book in the series. [...] The pace is electrifying, the prose is wonderfully assured and strong, but it's the complex characters that blend magic and reality into a captivating whole.” — Kirkus Reviews

“While Stiefvater's eccentric and acutely detailed characters continue to develop, they begin to react to one another rather than interact as a group, making this volume more tense and sinister than the last—and just as gripping.” —Publishers Weekly

“Exquisitely written and rich with figurative language, this story of secrets and dreams, of siblings and true magic, is an absolute miracle of imagination and an irresistible invitation to wonder.” — Booklist

“Readers who enjoy a dark mood and appreciate engaging sentences will want to spend more time with Henrietta.” — School Library Journal

“Having so skillfully introduced this constellation of characters in the first volume, Stiefvater weaves their strengths and weaknesses into an increasingly complex web of magic, intrigue, and dizzying action.” — Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
