At the end of the first book Alice and Isaac had conquered The Dragon and bound it to them. Alice has tried many times to wake the dragon, but it is solid as a rock. Geryon is sending Alice to a Reader's fortress. The Reader has been killed by his apprentice, Jacob. Several Readers are sending their apprentices to go fetch Jacob back for judgement for his crime, and if he won't come willingly they can dispose of him. As Alice ventures into this task she meets other apprentices: Garret, Ellen, Dex, Soranna, and Isaac. As they enter the readers realm, they realize the labyrinth is still in play. It should be dead now that the Reader is dead. They become separated as the labyrinthine, Torment, controls everything and he has a special interest in Alice. Ending has asked Torment to "protect" her, but Alice is not very cooperative, she has ulterior motives, because the Reader is Esau, who was after her and knows what happened to her father and Alice is determined to make Torment tell her what happened.
Lots of twists and turns kept me reading.
