I love this series so much. The first book was a fantastic introduction to the world--pretty steady pace, gets the reader acquainted with the characters. Excellent.
I also enjoyed this first sequel! Not quite as much as the first, but as a trilogy, they make an amazing story. I loved Alucard and further development of Rhy. And getting to see Kell more in his natural element, with his brother. When I first realized that this book would cover the Essen Tasch, I was a bit disappointed, as I didn't think it'd be very interesting. But I imagine that's a lot how watching sports is--tense, but the on-the-edge-of-your-seat, suspenseful kind. And there were quite a few great reveals!
I do have to say that I'm very glad I didn't have to wait for A Conjuring of Light and could start it straightaway after finishing this one! I'd have been an absolute mess waiting for it! (A Conjuring of Light picks up immediately where A Gathering of Shadows ends.)
