Whereas I was pleasantly surprised by volume 1, the stories of volume 2 were a mild letdown.

Less… complete? Cohesive? Certainly, Silver Blaze ended prematurely, if only by a scene or two. 

I was somewhat surprised also by the time jump. I don’t know if I’m correct, but it seemed these were amongst the later tales.
