I loved this book as much as the first one. Just like the first book it was a slow start but once things got rolling it was incredible. I love the world building, the secrets and the mysteries of this story and world. Amanda is one of my favourite characters ever and I love how soft hearted and kind but tough she is. I really enjoyed everything that we learned in this book and how things came to light. The last 30% had me not wanting to put the book down. I can’t wait to read the next book.

This one is a little difficult to review. I think my main impression is lukewarm. The exciting overarching threat in the first book was still present in this one, but sort of a ... side aspect of it that started getting a little convoluted in my opinion. I still liked the characters and the magic and there were some interesting developments, but some of the side plots could have been condensed and the plot would have been a little easier to follow. That said, I did finish it and I'm interested in finding out what happens in the last book!

While I enjoyed the first book in this trilogy, I remember it being a quite confusing and slow read. For some reason, this second book was the complete opposite for me! I’m very grateful that the author included a resume of book one and while I still think that the world is confusing (yet intriguing), I flew through this. I really enjoyed how character focused this story was, we learned a lot about their respective backstories and personalities, and learning about the world and its mysteries through their eyes worked very well. Erin M. Evans is really great at writing mysteries and conspiracies. Multiple times I thought I figured stuff out to be proved wrong in the next chapter. I’m really excited to see how the whole story will conclude in the next book.
If you’re looking for a highly political fantasy story with mystery and confusing, I can really recommend this series! 4 stars.
