This was hard for me to read. I didn't like all the flashbacks. Why did I bother reading the first book, if the second book was going to repeat everything? The last three chapters were the best part.

Pretty good but I didn't enjoy this one as much as the first one. While it gave us a bit more of a conclusion to the first book I found the flashbacks a bit repetitive. I'm onto the third book now, I like it better.

Really liked this follow-up but must admit I was dying to see them meet up (knew they would somehow!) and therefore rushed through it... Don't think I will read the 3rd instalment though; want to imagine that they lived happily ever after...

This did not need to be a 500+ page book. There were a lot of flashbacks to The Bronze Horseman and flashbacks to Alexander’s life before the war that caused the story to drag a bit. I almost didn’t finish it but I needed to know what happened with Tatiana and Alexander. By the end, I was glad it was over. From reading reviews of the third book, I don’t think I’ll be finishing this series.
