The character work is downright phenomenal. I just love spending time in the heads of these characters, and Abercrombie makes it so easy to feel engrossed with his accessibile and fluid prose.
The plot felt like it meandered a little more than the first book, as this still feels like a setup book for the culmination of everything in the third and final book. But just as I can look back and appreciate first book after finishing, I can do the same for the plot and understand that this is building up to something that will most definitely be extraordinary.
I can't wait to read the third book!
