i've thought for a day about to say and im quite unsure why, but i definitely liked this less than the first book. maybe because it took me longer to read, maybe just because it is way longer, or i'm missing lan or think some things are out of character (i keep wondering why hilo would believe after all these years that shae does not want to be weather man... and the physical fight between them...) but honestly i do want to finish this trilogy. it might take me years at this point but i'm sure i'll revisit these characters.
