The Deck of Omens by C.L. Herman
2.0
The start of this book was a huge foreshadowing journey. I like how a lot of the stuff unveiled in the beginning really set up the rest of the book. I felt like some character interactions, though – were a bit rushed. Some important conversation- I felt like needed to be discussed at length and really absorbed throughout the book, I wish this book would be spread into two books – but I understand why this was a duology, because the characters' journey had to come to a close.
The story in this installment was more action-packed, less mystery – which I both enjoyed and didn’t at the same time. I loved the small-town mystery of the first book but missed some of the action. While in this one it was the opposite: I liked the action but didn’t find any mystery to it. I think Christine Lynn Herman would make an action-packed while also mysterious really well.
This book was a good wrapping of the story, but I wish it was a bit longer – some parts felt rushed over and not elaborated. I’ll definitely be picking up more from Christine Lynn Herman – and of you’re looking for a nice, well rounded ending – this sequel is definitely for you.
