Ok I had more fun with this one than the first one. 

The truth bomb explosion at the end I had my suspicions about for the last 200 or so pages, but it was a great KABLAMO moment to end off the book with! I’m excited to go sailing across the sea for a family reunion!!! 

One thing that bugs me in this series though is that no one trusts each other at all?! They’re all damned secret keepers! Like the three main characters never got told that team work makes the dream work??!! I feel like if they just talked it out or explained their plans before setting them in motion, then they could’ve solved their problems a lot faster!?!! I totally get why they don’t fully trust each other, but at the same time - as George Michael says “you gotta have faith” 

Watch me say that and one of them brutally betrays the others in the future books lol - if it does, please just call me Baba Yellowlegs, clairvoyant evil witch beeyotch extraordinaire 💁‍♀️ 

Also, side note, I really thought this story was about to be a doggie snuff book and I was THIS CLOSE to throwing it across the room. 

Anywho, time for the highly controversial reading timeline placement of ASSASSINS BLADE for a fun lil blast from the past of short stories and then I shall be back to find out what we’re doing with all of this crazy ass stuff going on!

There were definitely some parts that were as slow as the first book but this was such a good sequel. So many more secrets that will definitely keep me glued to the rest of the series. The action in this one was way better than the first book in my opinion. It’s also really cool and kinda scary uncovering just how much The King knows, he is such a well written character in my opinion.

So much fun! Such an adventurous series and I'm so excited to see how the story unfolds. The plot and world is getting much bigger and the state  are getting higher, can't wait to read more. This one was a little slower then the first but when the plot unfolded, it happened fast and explosively.

I initially rated this book four stars when I read it many years ago. Now I have to rate it lower than Assassin’s Blade and Throne of Glass because I found it much less gripping. Maybe it’s series fatigue, but it took me much longer to get through this one. I just had such strong sequel energy I was feeling tired. But overall, strong world-building from Maas and I am looking forward to seeing where the series goes from here.
