![]() But only two doors remain open out of the hundreds (thousands?) of original doors, and a third door was forcibly closed because of a war that happened roughly a hundred years ago. The premise of Havenfall is that there is an inn on Earth (or Haven as it’s called in the book) and within this inn there are doorways to all the other worlds that exist. As it stands, Havenfall fell mostly flat for me because I was just waiting for the story to really get going and it never quite did. I feel like perhaps the two books in the series could have been combined into one 500 page book and it would have made more sense. Havenfall honestly felt like a prologue of a book. Maas, Melissa Albert and Holly Black, is sure to enthrall readers old and new. This sweeping new series, perfect for fans of Sarah J. With everything she loves at stake, Maddie must confront shocking truths about the dangers lurking beneath Havenfall – and discover who she really is. ![]() What’s worse is that Maddie’s friend Brekken stands accused of the murder. When a body is found on the grounds, the volatile peace brokered between these worlds is irrevocably compromised. ![]() Beneath the beautiful, sprawling manor in Colorado lie hidden gateways to other worlds, some long-sealed by ancient magic. But the Inn is much more than a hotel, and life in Havenfall isn’t without its secrets. ![]() Summers at Havenfall’s famous Inn are Maddie Marrow’s only solace from her dysfunctional existence. ![]() How: A copy of this novel was provided by Bloomsbury Australia for review. ![]()

Her book, Mysticism: A Study in the Nature and Development of Spiritual Consciousness, is the authoritative text of modern mysticism.
