kba76 's review for:
The Dazzling Heights
by Katharine McGee
We pick up after the events of book one, with the fallout of Eris's death.
For large parts of the book I had the sense of things being put in place to set up our finale. This isn't big on action as such, but there's a manipulation of characters and events to suit where we end up.
I'm still uncertain where I stand on the Avery and Atlas relationship. They spend little time together, and each has other things to keep them occupied. The introduction of con-artist Calliope brings a different level into the mix, and she struck the right blend between participant and observer. Characters shift slightly in this, and we get to dig under the surface a little.
Towards the end I feared we were going for a rehash of book one. Thankfully not, but there is a death and it binds our characters in a way that sets up intrigue for the final part of the trilogy.
Thanks to NetGalley for the advance copy in exchange for my review.
