vexyspice's review

4.0

So comparative to my reading the first, and listening to this one I found that listening made me capture the characters in a greater capacity. I was happy to learn more about Sogolon and why she was the way she was. I was excited to read when it got up to the point where she meets up with Tracker et al

Again, another beautifully written book. Despite being the 2nd book in this trilogy is can be a standalone and/ or read before reading black leopard red wolf.

This book works well in the context of the trilogy and the whole story it is trying to tell.

I got 2/3 or 3/4 of the way through the book.
I had to return the book, but also, it was less about the characters and more magical but in a way that was harder for me to stay engaged.
