Listen, its been so long since I've read Siege and Storm and Ruin and Rising that they have completely blended together in my mind. The pacing was a little off in this book and it was a little hard to get through certain parts of it. That said, this book lets you see how Leigh Bardugo's strengths are developing and leading to something amazing in the future. Still, gross age difference and gross/ possesive behavior to a minor.

In comparison with the first book, the plot gets better as well as the characters interactions.
You can start to comprehend the characters a lot better, and it turns the reading more enjoyable.
