Reread February 2019: I still very much enjoyed this second volume. I'm going to leave my original 5 star rating, but I think this go 'round would be a 4 star rating from me. I love Aram in the first half of the book a lot. I don't know how I'd forgotten about him since I read this the first time.
The second half of the book is following a lot of characters all together, so you don't get to spend much time with any one of them. But I still had a fun adventure alongside the characters. I still love all the different types of beings in this world, and I like that it uses them to somewhat address ethnocentrism. A lot of this book is moving characters to gear up for the final book though, so there isn't much/anything wrapped up at the end. It's actually more of a "dun dun duuuun" ending. Galloran is a total boss, and I'm excited to reread the final book in this trilogy when I get the chance.
