This book gripped me from page one and didn't let me go. Due to personal reasons, I wasn't able to finish it as fast as I wanted to, but whenever I wasn't reading it I kept thinking about it. Book 1 already blew my mind, but the fires of vengeance even more. I have so many highlights on my kindle and I keep hitting people up with quotes from the book. It was so well-paced, filled with action, high stakes, AND DRAGONS. I love how it touched more about the moral issues of having lesser and nobles. "I'll reclaim my humanity by destroying a man who would otherwise deny it. You can't talk people into giving up their hold over you. You have to make them do it."

Significantly better than the first book. Main character had a major attitude makeover than was severely needed.

This was so good! Winter did it again. The second book curse did not harm this one! I was gripped the entire time. I think the way he has Tau face his motivations is handled so well. As a young man thrust with so much responsibility so soon, he takes it in stride. Also Uduak and Hadith as a couple. So cute. Themba continues to be the comic relief we need. And the budding and sweet relationship between Tau and the Queen is so cute. All in all, I can not WAIT for the next book!!
Graphic: Gore, Violence, Murder, and War
