Disclaimer: I received an arc in exchange for an honest review.
A Scar in the Bone is the second installment in the A Fire in the Sky series and it picks up around a year after the last events. Tamsyn is still with the other dragons, having lost Fell, and is learning how to best cope with the loss while also trying to find her place in two very different worlds.
In this adventure I felt that the storytelling and pacing were stronger than the first book. It was easy to follow along with Tamsyn and watch her story unfold without pause or awkward stopping points. In fact I felt that the one of the only qualms I had were with its ending, it felt just a bit abrupt and not as satisfying as I would have liked and some of my questions were left unanswered.
Despite that, I think I had more fun with this book and was a little sad when it ended because I would have liked more. One of my favorite parts about this book vs its predecessor was its worldbuilding for the dragons as well as all the background stories involved with them. Sophie has created such a unique twist on dragon lore and culture it will have you wanting more and more.
