A well-done, worthy sequel for an excellent book.

The Heavenly Horse didn’t deserve a sequel so unnecessary and shameful. It had all the potential to be great, but Piper missed every single opportunity thrown it’s way.

Piper at the Gate reads a touch better than its previous installation, though I would hazard to say the characters are not as interesting/do not grow as much. Most characters are quite basic, particularly our main character Piper, though he does change somewhat within the last two chapters-- it's rather abrupt.

I would recommend this book to those who like fast-paced and lore-heavy stories, but don't mind rather matte main characters (also, read the first one before this!).
