Dance of a Burning Sea continues the tale of the Mousai, with Niya and Alos having great chemistry and banter, and the world if Aadilor being expanded.

Unfortunately, while I felt the book has a strong if a bit slow start, and a great middle, it 1) takes the main couple quite a while to like each other and 2)

the end fizzles out very anti-climatically. Like… I thought the giants would not be resolved by Alos „just leaving“ , or thought some sort of betrayal might happen in Esra…

This book was far from perfect, riddled with issues, frustrated me, made me roll my eyes countless times, but it was thoroughly entertaining to read. Like bad cheesy tv but you can’t help but watch.

I guess a little more happens in this book than in the last, but both the main characters are unlikable and the interest level isn't that high.
