Dit is de derde keer dat ik deze serie opnieuw lees.
Omdat het een kinderboek is, beoordeel ik het ook als een kinderboek;
4.0 / 5 sterren

Vergeleken met de vorige twee boeken zijn de scenes kort, en snel. Dus het voelt wat opgejaagd.
Dit is ook de reden waarom ik een ster er heb afgehaald.
(Waarschijnlijk is dit beïnvloed door het voorgaande boek wat ik gelezen heb, die veel slomer was)

SpoilerDit boek volgt Evanlyn en Will, na de gebeurtenissen van het vorige boek. Hun gevangenschap in Skandië duurt relatief kort, waarna ze worden vrijgelaten door Erak.
Door Wil's verslaving aan warmkruid, krijgt Evanlyn in dit boek een kans om zichzelf meer te ontwikkelen. Hoewel ik liever meer had gezien, en de korte duur hiervan dat effect ondermijnt. Verder volgt het Halt en Arnaut die samen op zoek gaan naar Wil en Evanlyn.
Hun verhaal krijgt iets meer de ruimte, en heeft de evenementen iets meer uitgespreid door het boek heen.

This book was kind of depressing, not gonna lie.

This one was probably not the best one I've read so far, with Will getting addicted and all of the hardship that Evalyn had to go through on her own.

I do like seeing Halt and Horace traveling together and taking down barbarians on their way to find Will.

Again, really sad for Evalyn and all the thing she has to go through on her own (she's only like 17...)

I really like everything that was going on, and I am going nuts because I have to wait for transportation to go to the library.

If I'm being brutally honest I think this was my least favorite of the series so far. It was not bad, but I am looking forward to getting into the next one and hopefully the action will pick up again.
