brewergnome 's review for:

Thron in Flammen: Roman by Brian Staveley

3.0

---

Pretty weak. The first volume had some trope problems, and the protagonists were all stupid lucky. This one... it seemed like all the protagonists were just making the most ridiculous possible decisions and jumping to the most ridiculous conclusions, even in the face of someone going "wait, what are you doing!?" The author tried to set up reasonings, but it *felt* like the real reason was because in the second book of a series you're "supposed to" put all your main characters in difficult/untenable positions.

Decidedly "meh."
