I don't know how much of this book was truly necessary but I enjoyed the continued world building and further getting to know the MC’s and their allies. On to the next.

I'm loving this series more and more! The second book in the DARK MAJI series is full of action, new characters, adventure, secrets, and drama. It's got a great cast, awesome writing, and a fun plot.
Quinn and her new "friends" continue to look for allies in a pirate city, hoping to help Lazarus as he seeks to gain his throne. As a conspiracy and strange happenings befall them, both Quinn and Lazarus find their powers--and patience with one another--tested.
I still love the bickering and tension between Quinn and Lazarus. They have an intense undeniable chemistry, even as they struggle to learn how to trust each other. Watching Quinn learn to build relationships and care about the people around her was just as rewarding as seeing her fight and use her magic. Lazarus has some dark secrets that I can't wait to see come into play. Also, I am loving the new side characters and the depth of the more familiar ones.
The plot is pretty straight forward and easy to follow. The action scenes are great, the setting is creative, and the writing remains solid. There are some tense moments and a good deal of drama to keep the stakes raised.

Anti heroine and reveling in the dark
I love this series. Dark justice is still justice, even if others may find it cruel. The harshness is attractive. I do hope this is a really long series, because I'm loving reading it.

I didn't want to stop reading this one. Quin is so much darker and growing into herself. Laz, Draven, and the rest of the crew were more developed too. I'm excited to read the next one!

So... It's not boring, and the pace is definitively better than in the first book, so that's good.
I still don't know what the plot is about though.
I feel like someone is telling me a story, and I'm sitting there, enjoying the ride, but I don't really understand where we're going. The first 2 books just feel like a big introduction to the world before the real story begins. So yeah, I'm there for the journey, but I'd really like to see where we're going!
