The Boundless, written by Anna Bright, is the second installment in The Beholder series. Last year, I had the pleasure to review the first book, The Beholder. This new book, a young adult fantasy novel, was released on June 9, 2020 and is published by HarperTeen. Check out my review of The Boundless below.
Thank you so much, HarperTeen, Anna Bright, and Patricia @ FFBC tours, for the gifted e-copy! The opinions expressed are my own and material is courtesy of the publisher, FFBC Tour, and the author.
Synopsis – The Boundless by Anna Bright
This breathtaking sequel to The Beholder will take you on a journey into a darkly sparkling fairy tale, perfect for fans of The Selection and Caraval.
When Selah found true love with Prince Torden of Norway, she never imagined she’d have to leave him behind. All because the Beholder’s true mission was a secret Selah’s crew didn’t trust her to keep: transporting weapons to the rebels fighting against the brutal tsarytsya, whose shadow looms over their next port of Shvartsval’d.
A place Selah hoped she’d never go.
But gone is the girl who departed Potomac filled with fear. With a stockpile of weapons belowdecks and her heart hanging in the balance, Selah is determined to see the Beholder’s quest to its end.

Review – The Boundless by Anna Bright
The Boundless was a very nice read. I actually preferred this book than the first simply because a little more plot-driven. The story picks up where The Beholder left off. The goals have deviated from the initial quest and I very much enjoyed it.
This story introduces new interesting characters in this story and that spiced things up. Selah is the main reason I didn’t give a five star to this book. I still have my issues with her, but the intrigue and the stakes made it easier to overlook some aspects.
Overall, this is a nice story with more action than the first installment. An adventure where Selah matures. This story wraps up the story really well. I enjoyed reading this story.
Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
