The Merciless Ones by Namina Forna
Did not finish book. Stopped at 45%.
DNF @ 45%
All the stuff I liked about the previous book is largely ignored here for the sake of throwing a bunch of stuff into the plot and seeing what sticks. None of it did, though. I didn't feel like Deka was emotionally invested in what was going on around her, so it was hard to care about it, even if it was super messed up and appalling.
I liked this narrator a bit better than the first one.
