Just a warning if you haven't read either book yet.I adored the first book. As a main character, Killashandra was a revelation to me. I had always scoffed at the idea of reading McCaffrey as a younger person interested in 'serious' books and had no idea she wrote such liberated female characters. Glad I overcame my prejudice! I loved that Killa was rather self-centered, ambitious and emotionally cold and made no apologies for it. It felt very unique to me and I was totally engrossed in her rise through the Crystal Singer ranks. The second book has let me down in this regard. The world is interesting as well as the plot but much of the book is taken up with a romance that I found not only dull but out-of-character for the Killashandra I admired in the first book. If her interest in her kidnapper had been tainted with a bit of 'utilitarianism' like her romance with the Guild Master in book one I would have found it less bothersome. But it isn't. Much of it is just straight out of a Harlequin, which makes me wonder with some disappointment how intentional the qualities were that I admired in the first book. Maybe McCaffrey was reacting to some criticism of her icy main character? (I notice even now in these reviews some people don't like her.) If so I wish she had stuck to her guns.I'll still read the third and other McCaffrey in the future. But what I'd really like to do even now while I'm typing this is re-read the first book and enjoy it again... ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One of my Many Favorite Series by Anne McCaffrey. *by A***E on Reviewed in the United States on September 30, 2019* Over time I have purchased every one of my favorite Anne McCaffrey books again, this time in Kindle format, unlike my Hardcover or Mass market paperback editions, my Kindle editions won't fall apart in my hands due to excessive re-reading of the many favorite Series of hers that I've purchased over the years. The character development, storyline, and pace pull you along, never wanting to put them down. The World Anne has built is so realistic, her characters so endearing, you can't help but care about their trials and tribulations, laughing, crying, and coming back again and again throughout the years. If asked how many times I've re-read her books, saying over 50 times wouldn't even come close. Highly recommended. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great story by a great author *by P***Y on Reviewed in the United States on March 5, 2019* Anne McCaffrey is the grand dame of Sci-Fi / fantasy writing. I'd place her along side of any of the greats such as Asimov, Bradbury and Heinlein. The Crystal singer series does not disappoint. Characters that you grow to know, and a story line that keeps you reading until the very end. I love the way the author overlaps other story series with this one, so that her universe keeps getting bigger and bigger. Whereever you go in the McCaffrey universe you find people you would like to know, fantasy you would dream of experiencing and science that you wish was in your life time. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/25389180-killashandra-crystal-singer-trilogy-book-2](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/25389180-killashandra-crystal-singer-trilogy-book-2) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-18*
