The Philosopher Kings: A Novel by Jo Walton

4.0

"I knew what death meant now. It was conversations cut off."

This was a wonderful continuation of the story that began in the first book. It was a great balance of new and returning characters.

I wish more of the story had been given to Simmea's death. It was very sudden and not all that emotional.

 
I thought the direction the ending went in seemed odd, so I'm interested to see how it plays out in the final book of the trilogy.
