I liked this book. Fast paced. Lots of tense and drama. Reveals about past and present. And lots of set up for the future. I’m a fan of the MMC and FMC. I like their chosen family and how the story evolves. The gods are kinda confusing and I wish I had reread Book 1 before starting this, but still a good series and read.

I really enjoyed this duology, and I don’t think it suffers from sequel syndrome. I feel that it could’ve been a little more tightly plotted, and while Broadbent’s prose is lovely, there are a few spots where the voice doesn’t match, or small errors pulled me out of my immersion in the book. Overall, the book is well written with solid conflict and resolution, and I found it very enjoyable.
