This was fine, it wasn’t difficult to pick up and read, but I also never found myself really getting into it. As a sequel, I think it fell a little flat and didn’t add anything too new to the story or the characters. Most of the conflict between characters could have been solved with a simple conversation (one of my biggest pet peeves) and the overarching fantasy conflict never felt high stakes.
I only cared about Tycho and Jax, and wasn’t super interested in anyone else. This is also so random, but I felt like characters were always sparring or “tussling” (like a DnD session when you don’t know what else to do) and it got so boring to read and kind of annoying. Like do something else, please. Most of the scenes began to get repetitive.
There will likely be a next one, based on the ending, and I probably will read just because I want to know what happens to my boys.
