Definitely an improvement over the previous book, with a satisfying well-written ending ( although perhaps a bit predictable but that isn't necessarily bad ). I did not love it like the first book but it answered pretty much all the unanswered questions I had throughout the series, and everything was tied up nicely for the most part, except for
nothing much about stone eater alabaster anymore? cmon!
. It was a really good series overall and I don't regret reading it, as I had my doubts after finishing second book. What I enjoyed or appreciated most was the answers we finally got after waiting for long, as those revelations were interesting enough and didn't ruin the story in anyway for me.
