The Providence of Fire by Brian Staveley

3.0

This is a little bit better than the first book but I think the pacing is still kinda slow.

Adare's storyline is quite strong, but this girl have some questionable decisions
Spoilerespecially when he stabbed Valyn because she persists that they badly need il Tornja.
And Oshi, Nira, and Fulton makes her story more interesting.

Kaden once again has the most interesting storyline due to the mystery surrounding Triste, the Csestriim, and the Ishien.

Meanwhile, Valyn is Valyn, still surrounded by the conspiracy, between the opposing teams, and it gets a little bit boring . . . sometimes.
SpoilerAnd flier Laith just fucking dies, like he didn't go with a bang. He just says oh I'm going to join the battle, then after a few paragraph he dies. I know he was weakened by an arrow by an "ally" and shows the reality of battles, but still it's quite saddening for me.


Aside from the siblings' POV, he have Gwenna's and I got to say that hers is better than Valyn's. And her character improved a lot in this book, but I'm hoping to see more of Annick but sadly she's still the quiet one and still good with her bow and arrows.
