La Espada de Cristal

El segundo libro de la apasionante trilogía La reina Roja, sigue las aventuras de Mare Barrow en su búsqueda de justicia.
La sangre de Mare Barrow es roja, del color de los empobrecidos, la gente común; sin embargo, su capacidad sobrehumana de controlar los relámpagos la ha puesto en la mira de la realeza. Es allí, entre el glamour y la buena vida de la corte, donde Mare carga con el estigma de la abominación, y donde conoce también una amarga traición.
>The second installment of the thrilling Red Queen trilogy escalates the struggle between the growing rebel army and the blood-segregated world they've always known. Mare Barrow's blood is red--the color of common folk--but her Silver ability has turned her into a weapon that the royal court tries to control. The crown calls her an impossibility, a fake, but as she makes her escape from Maven, the prince who betrayed her, Mare uncovers something startling: she is not the only one of her kind. Pursued by Maven, Mare sets out to find and recruit other Red-and-Silver fighters to join in the struggle against her oppressors. Mare finds herself on a deadly path, at risk of becoming exactly the kind of monster she is trying to defeat. Will she shatter under the weight of the lives that are the cost of rebellion?
