This book was everything I want in a second book. It built upon what happened in the first and perfectly set up for the third book. There were many times that this book had me reacting out loud because of what was happening. I am glad we got some chapters from Nassun's perspective. It was interesting to see what was happening with her during the time that would be the first book and beyond. I loved how we got to see all the different parts of the world. I need to pick up the next book soon to see how everything works out!
