Review: A perfect, haunting conclusion - Two Twisted Crowns is a stunning and deeply satisfying finale to The Shepherd King duology. Rachel Gillig’s writing is lyrical, atmospheric, and completely immersive. The gothic setting, mist-covered forests, and eerie magic create a haunting backdrop that pulls you fully into the story. I especially loved the dual POV storyline in this book. Following both Elspeth and Ravyn’s journey alongside Elm and Ione’s added so much emotional depth and character growth. Elm’s arc was particularly rewarding to witness. The Nightmare remains one of the most unique and compelling characters I’ve ever read, and seeing more of his emotional complexity in Two Twisted Crowns made the story even more powerful. The romance is emotional and meaningful, but the story remains plot-forward, with the magic system and character arcs taking center stage. And the ending was absolutely perfect: emotional, satisfying, and beautifully concluded. This duology is atmospheric, haunting, and unforgettable. I will absolutely read anything Rachel Gillig writes next.
Review: Beautifully Written Finale, Even If the Focus Didn’t Fully Click - Two Twisted Crowns is a beautifully written continuation of the series and a strong fantasy novel overall. The writing remains atmospheric and immersive, and the world still feels rich, dark, and thoughtfully constructed. This installment leans much more heavily into Elm and Ione’s story, which was a bit of a downside for me personally. For some reason, I didn’t connect as strongly with their characters, so that shift in focus made the book feel less engaging than the first one. Because of that, it didn’t captivate me in quite the same way One Dark Window did. That said, I still genuinely enjoyed the storyline. The adventure, the unfolding events, and the romantic elements were all well done and kept me invested. Even if this book wasn’t my favorite of the two, it’s still a great conclusion to the series and absolutely worth reading—especially for fans who appreciate lyrical writing, dark fantasy, and a well-developed magical world.

Perfect journey and ending, it picks right up where the other book left off and carried you to a beautiful perfect ending. What a unique and fascinating and fun book to read. I couldn’t put it down, I love it so much. The magic is just so different than anything else I’ve read and the writing style is perfect for me. The pace was great, the romance was great, the riddles and twists and turns in the journey were perfect. I just love this book. Only good things to say. If you haven’t read this yet- you should do so soon! It’s sooo good and you’ll be glad you did.
