The second book was definitely a smoother read than the first. A lot is happening in these books and there is a lot of hidden knowledge that is easy to miss. I've been reading a chapter review after each chapter to help me keep track of everything, otherwise I find I can get a bit lost at times. The story is challenging but enjoyable. I found myself a lot more invested in the characters and really curious about the world. I plan on reading the rest of the series!
