Lamplighter: Monster Blood Tattoo, Book Two by DM Cornish

This is the second instalment after book one The Foundling by D.M. Cornish and it’s a fantasy adventure novel.

After his last adventure Rossamund’s new life as a lamplighter apprentice seems dull, until a group of unexpected guests arrive.

Rossamund begins a new adventure and faces many challenges along the way.

With new characters, shocking twists and an ending that no one would have predicted you won’t be able to put this book down.

Although I would advise anyone wishing to read the second book to read the first it’s possible to skip the first and still be able to follow the story.

Verdict: A great read for lovers of fantasy books.
