The amazon.com product description:
The second book in the Shadow Grail series by the New York Times, USA Today, and Publishers Weekly bestselling authors Mercedes Lackey and Rosemary EdghillI read the first book in The Shadow Grail series, Legacies last year and really enjoyed it - of course, I can't really think of any Mercedes Lackey books I haven't liked over the years. The concept is an intriguing one, being the typical reverse of the usual.
Spirit and her friends Burke, Loch, Muirin, and Addie have managed to defeat the evil force that has been killing students at Oakhurst Academy for the past forty years—or so they think. When a series of magical attacks disrupts the school, Doctor Ambrosius calls upon alumnus Mark Rider to secure the campus—and start training the students for war. The only student without magic, Spirit doesn’t trust Mark or his methods. She knows that Oakhurst isn’t safe. And if Spirit and her friends want to live long enough to graduate, they have to find out what is really going on—before it’s too late.

Thanks for stopping in, chelleyreads. She's overall one of my favourites to re-read.
This sounds like a cool series. While I haven't read any Mercedes Lackey yet, I've heard good things about her writing.
Audrey, it's a good one. This combination of co-authors is one that's proven to be good in other books too.
Yeah, Mercedes Lackey's a good writer - at least the books are ones I end up reading over and over again.
Thanks for commenting.
