Even better than the first! Now they all the worldbuilding is out of the way, we get straight to the action! Great new characters, great character development, even more evil villains, exciting action! Focused a bit too much at points on how sad the characters feel about the death of a certain character in the previous book. I get it! You miss them!

This book is a really good example of how good reveals and plot twists hit when they’re delivered effectively. It doesn’t feel like anything comes out of nowhere, and the result leaves the reader feeling surprised but satisfied. Also, really fantastic characters. They all feel very deep and real. It’s a pretty gloomy book, though. Leaves off on hella sad vibes; I don’t expect that to change given the series track record. This makes me feel apprehensive about the final installment.
