From Booklist
Death and the Empress have tangled in many past games (or lives), but this time Death is determined not to succumb to her charms, while Evie can’t forget her hopes of building a game-ending alliance and her love for a mortal man. Most of the book focuses on Evie’s action-packed attempts to find a way out of the life-and-death arcana game, but it transitions suddenly and without warning into a spicy romance novel for the last third, and the sudden turn of the plot may thwart readers looking for more of one thing or the other. Fans of Poison Princess (2012), however, will still dig it, and a juicy cliff-hanger ending will amp up their appetites for further tarot-based adventures. Grades 9-12. --Cindy Welch

PRAISE FOR POISON PRINCESS
“An electrifying mix of page-turning, post-apocalyptic adventure and sizzling romance. The Arcana Chronicles will blow you away!” (P.C. Cast)
“The prose crackles with energy and interest, the content is on target in terms of current demand, and this could be the next Twilight.” (Booklist)
“My brain is near exploding with how crazy good this story was… An exceptionally well written plot that will have you turning pages and sticking up a ‘do not disturb’ sign. You won’t want to be interrupted. Especially when Jackson has his smexi Cajun mojo in full swing.” (novelsontherun.blogspot.com)
“Holy Mother of YA Goodness…did Kresley Cole write a book! I’m still getting the chills thinking about this ‘Poison Princess!’… Jack Deveaux, [is] a swoon-worthy character if ever there was one.” (parajunkee.com)
“Kresley Cole knows how to capture an audience because I was gone from page one.” (mynotsovacantshelf.blogspot.com)

The Poison Princess, the first book in Kresley Cole's Arcana Chronicles ended on a cliffhanger. Let me get this out of the way- The cliffhanger in Endless Knight is more intense, jaw dropping and a doozy of a doozy cliffhanger that may have readers in shock and perhaps anger at Kresley. But this event really turns this story on its ear. The world and the writing is unlike anything I've read by Kresley. Endless Knight has a very different tone and way with words and dialogue that may make readers scratching their heads, wondering where Kresley is taking the heroine, Evie. What Evie goes through is very intense, and at times heartbreaking because she is truly alone in this dangerous world where survival is barely living because if the zombies don't get you, the cannibals will or the weather and lack of food and water may do you in.
Evie is a much stronger person after the events in The Poison Princess. She has come into her powers of manipulating plant life, and has a motley crew of others like her. Her off again, on again love interest, Jack is the only normal human of the bunch and he still frustrates Evie because he's hot and cold toward her. Not that they have any time to work out their problems or time for romance because they're being stalked. This time around the hungry hoard of mindless zombies that roam the land are still a nuisance but it's the cannibals, the humans who want fresh meat they have to keep their eye on. There's also Death and his supernatural minions charting Evie's every move. Death has special plans for Evie. She has this connection to him, and those reasons are revealed in strange dreams. All she wants is to find a safe place and hopefully locate her grandmother, as well as try for some sort of future with Jack.Read more ›

Does Death remind anyone of Spike on the cover? My friend mentioned that to me and I laughed because he totally does. I never watched Buffy but c'mon, everyone knows who Spike is (James Marsters). But tell me you can't see the same thing when you look at this cover! I absolutely love it!
That being said, let's get to the book. If I could give a book more than five stars, this book would get so many it's not even funny. I was told Endless Knight was better than Poison Princess and let me tell you, I was NOT lied to. This book absolutely blew me away in every sense of the word. I couldn't put this book down; while I was at work, I was sneaking a chapter here and a chapter there even though I knew I had work to do. I couldn't help it, I needed to know what happened next but then it just kept happening over and over again; the need to know more. It's been awhile since I've felt this strongly about a book or at least, it feels like it has. I've enjoyed a lot of the books I've read recently but nothing like this. Not even close.
Endless Knight picks up exactly, and I mean exactly where Poison Princess left off. No crash course refresher here. It's all about getting back to the nitty gritty and finding out more. Jack, oh Jack, he is so sexy and it broke my heart seeing him look at Evie the way he did. It broke her heart, too. She loves him, there's no denying that but there's also no denying the fact that she's changed, whether she wanted to or not. The end of Poison Princess just shows us how much.
I absolutely love Finn and Matthew; Finn is so much fun - I want to be friends with him. He would be so much fun to be around, he's such a jokester and always seems to have a good time. I mean, who doesn't want to surround themselves with someone like that?Read more ›

After reading Poison Princess, I found myself both enthralled with the book, and dubious as to how this series was going to go. The first book was exciting, provocative and such a great foundation, and I was unsure how Kresley was going to one-up it. I should never have second-guessed her!
Endless Knight is one of my favorite books of hers, in any of her series! It's such a great combination of genres - horror, thriller, romance, mystery - I found myself having to pause because I was reading so fast! I think one of my favorite things about Kresley's books and characters is that they all have a reason for what they do and say. They are multifaceted, and its easy to step into their shoes and understand their motives. You find yourself loving or hating characters, but your opinions evolve as the story progresses. It's real, and gritty, and fascinating to read.
She's gotten good at leaving you aching for more, as well. Not sure if I like that or not! Haha. But really, the story is so engrossing, I feel like I could pick it up and read it all over again, and STILL be in awe!

This book had so many twists and surprises, I couldn't put it down. And bad Kresley for ending it at that point. I CANNOT wait another year for the next book. I will literally go moitier fou. I love how Evie really tries to be so 'good'. And that everyone else isn't what they seemed. I had decided to dislike Jack at the end of Poison Princess. And since this book literally picks up where the first left off, well, you should really read the first in the series to know what I mean. I feel a little nicer towards him, now. But I'll make a more informed decision once I learn HIS endgame. Because things are never as they seem. Kresley Cole is by far my favorite author. Steamy and sexy Heroes. Sweet and Sassy Heroines. Very little in the book that I disliked. But I'm me, read it, decide for yourself. And heck, we can discuss it if you'd like.
