it was a little repetitive, reading it immediately after book one. overall its good.

Great follow up to Kushiel's Dart.

Excellent sequel

It’s not often that i enjoy the sequel as much as the first. There are more politics in this one, but it is just as well written. I must confess it’s my second time through and likely not the last!

This series is perfect fantasy and I’ve adored it since I first read it at 16. Rich, lush, sparkling and adventurous, I love to return to this world over and over again.

Will return to

It was a bit slow in the middle, but as usual, Jacqueline Carey delivers a saucy adventure that makes it a hard book to put down.
