mellhay's review against another edition
3.0
The world is expanding for us. We learn of more magics and history in the world. We know the world is full of history and magic, and we are seeing more of it now. We seem to dive into the thinking of magics in the world and belief in it. This is a spiral of thinking Stagger falls into. And we start to get an inner view of magic.
I think the end is worth it. I like where everyone ends up here. It all feels fitting for what we've learned and the paths they've taken.

This was such a good sequel. I enjoyed every minute of it, and it’s characters and unique world building.

The tone is grim overall. At best, it's frustrating or bittersweet. Despite some humor, and even liking the characters, I'd rather spend my time reading something else.

Wow, Just Wow,
Second in the series. I got the complete set of 4 on Kindle for just £0.99 pence and to be honest that probably the reason I bought them (cheapskate).
The first book Greatshadow was fantastic. I have not read any fantasy for probably 20yrs and it gripped me from page one. The story of Infidel & Stagger and a very enjoyable assorted cast was wonderful and I carried straight on into this book.
In the first book Stagger narrated the story for us, a lot of it as a ghost. He has multiple roles in this book but still the unlikely love of He and Infidel continues. This book has a few favourite characters from first book and many new ones.
I wont really go into the story plenty of other reviews I am sure will do that far better than I can. But, again it involves a Dragons, Ogres, Crazy Religious Types, A Cross Dressing Midget and a Lady with big pins stuck in her head (read the book).
I read this book in 3 days which for me is very fast as it's a much bigger book than my sweet spot which is normally around 250 pages. I spent my nights reading this into the early hours.
I highly recommend it and I am just about to start the third book WitchBreaker.
