Ce deuxième livre est aussi bien que le premier, il est devient même drôle. On ne s'ennuie pas à un seul moment, les 700 pages sont avalées sans aucun accrochage (on peut également féliciter la traductrice). Le monde est clarifié dans celui ci et on découvre de nouveaux aspects. 
Pour les personnages, alors que je les appréciais dans le précédent, iels deviennent carrément attachants. Le développement de Nahri est fabuleux. Elle se prend enfin en main. Il y a beaucoup de femmes présentes dans celui ci, ce qui manquait dans le premier. Ali est encore plus engagé dans sa lutte anti classe à Daveabad. Dara commence à utiliser son cerveau et son bon sens tout en restant un ennemi terrifiant. 
Hâte de lire la suite !

I didn't think it was possible but this book got even better than the first! I loved the further dive into the politics of this world, and the cliffhanger ending nearly killed me. And my love for Nahri only seems to grow!

This was a wonderfully magical continuation of the Daevebad Trilogy. 

My one criticism was the pacing seemed to be quite slow in the beginning and quite fast-paced at the end. But though it started out a little slow, I understand where Chakraborty was going with the placement of each character and where they ended up when the book was over. The last 100 pages takes the reader on a journey at break-neck speed! It drew me in so fully that I couldn't stop reading. 

I absolutely loved the second installment in this trilogy. It was a delight to learn more about the different tribes, the history of Daevebad, the true story of the marid, and the ifrit. I can't wait to see how it all plays out in the final book, but I'm also going to be quite sad to leave this world as it has me enraptured.

I was consistently shocked through the  entire book. The story never goes where you’re expecting it to. Somehow a cast of treacherous characters making terrible decisions works. Brilliant.
