I read Chai's 2 star review criticizing the lack of quiet moments for processing, and I get that. It probably could be a more powerful story if the pace relented for just a moment and let our dear Galaxy think. But it doesn't diminish my absolute delight over this book. Still a 5 star read from me.

However. There are a number of new plot threads that seemed unnecessary at times, and I am honestly not sure how they will be tied up in a probable-but-not-yet-confirmed Book 3... or if they even can be. There is also more gore;
I enjoyed the theoretical aspects; the themes of good, evil, and what you have to do to survive; and the found family and forging of relationships. Who wouldn't go to hell and back for their friends and loved ones?
