planetlibrarian 's review for:
Oaths of Legacy
by Emily Skrutskie
*Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for providing an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review*
Rating: 3.5
This book picks up relatively soon after the events of Bonds of Brass. The switch to Gal's pov is a good choice, it sets this book apart from the first one and adds a lot of context to how Gal thinks and reacted to things in book one. I also think separating Ettian from control of the narrative really made Gal's waffling on how he feels and what he wants more engaging. Much like the first book, this one hits a wham moment near the end that was WILD, and that's a part of Skrutskie's writing that I really enjoy. The plot is slow to start, but quickly speeds up and remains pretty fast-paced throughout the end. A great second entry in this series that lives up to the first and perfectly sets up book three.
