False Covenant (Widdershins Adventures #2) 
But a supernatural threat is stalking the nighttime streets—a creature of the other world has come to infiltrate the seedier streets of Davillon, to intertwine its tendrils through the lower echelons of society. Faced with both political upheaval and a supernatural threat to its citizenry, the local representatives of the Church are paralyzed and the Guardsmen are in over their heads.
And then there’s Widdershins--who’s tried, and failed, to stay out of trouble since taking over Genevieve’s tavern; who’s known to the Church and the Guard both, and trusted by neither; who may, with some of her Thieves’ Guild contacts, have unwittingly played a part in the bishop’s plans; and who, along with her personal god Olgun, may be the only real threat to the supernatural evil infesting Davillon.
After really enjoying the way gods were presented in Thief's Covenant, I was excited to continue learning about them in False Covenant. Based on the blurb it seemed like the focus would be even more on the occult side of the the world, and I certainly wasn't disappointed on that front! A dark, shadowy figure is terrorizing the people of Davillon, but oddly no one is killed or even injured. That's because it's just a ruse set up by the new bishop in order to turn the people back to the Church.
False Covenant is even better than Thief's Covenant. The news of 2 more Widdershins's books helps to mitigate the sadness of finishing book 2.I had forgotten that the horror in False Covenant is not subtle. I should not like these books. I do not like books with multiple points of view, deaths of multiple liked characters, monsters that would give Buffy's the Gentlemen (Hush) nightmares, and only bits of romance. False Covenant is so well written and so enthralling that it overcomes all those

Wonderful! I love the writing style :) And the story was awesome!!!Iruoch and his rhymes...Iruoch was such a wonderful monster, a wonderful bad guy. Not that he had morals at all. He was just constructed so well. From his floppy hat that never moved to his dance-like/pirouetting style of walking. And how it looked like he should have gone every direction (there's only One Direction!) but ended up coming right to you. His dual voices and his guant scarecrow form were so well described. The
*** 4.40 ***This was another very fun and fast read, and I ended up reading all night, trying to not be freaked by the storm which was destroying the trees and roofs around... But the action kept my mind occupied and before I knew it, storm was gone and the sun was creeping up the horizon. ... And the more than 250 pages were done! This was soooo much creepy fun!!! It still is a YA Fantasy with a kick ass girl protagonists, but this go around the reminiscing is gone and the absence of time jumps

In Thief's Covenant, Ari Marmell completely builds his own universe and does so superbly, there was
False Covenant is a good follow up to Thief's Covenant. I'm knocking half a star off my rating though because of yet another heartbreaking death of a character in this series. I'm not sure how much more of this I can take. I'm going to take a break from this series now and think about whether or not I want to continue.

Narrative Toward Books False Covenant (Widdershins Adventures #2)
It’s been over half a year, now, since the brutal murder of Archbishop William de Laurent during his pilgrimage to the Galicien city of Davillon. During that time, the Church of the Hallowed Pact has assigned a new bishop to the city—but it has also made its displeasure at the death of its clergyman quite clear. Davillon’s economy has suffered beneath the weight of the Church’s displeasure. Much of the populace—angry at the clergy— has turned away from the Church hierarchy, choosing private worship or small, independent shrines. And the bishop, concerned for his new position and angry at the people of Davillon, plans to do something about it.But a supernatural threat is stalking the nighttime streets—a creature of the other world has come to infiltrate the seedier streets of Davillon, to intertwine its tendrils through the lower echelons of society. Faced with both political upheaval and a supernatural threat to its citizenry, the local representatives of the Church are paralyzed and the Guardsmen are in over their heads.
And then there’s Widdershins--who’s tried, and failed, to stay out of trouble since taking over Genevieve’s tavern; who’s known to the Church and the Guard both, and trusted by neither; who may, with some of her Thieves’ Guild contacts, have unwittingly played a part in the bishop’s plans; and who, along with her personal god Olgun, may be the only real threat to the supernatural evil infesting Davillon.
