I like the book and the story. The plot is nice and I really enjoy the worldbuilding, but the way things came together fell a bit flat for me, maybe because the big showdown was still mostly independant events that didnt influence eachother that much outside of characters noticing somethign about the other plotline. The writing is still verbose in the wrong way... I feel like the scenes are more streamlined than in the first book, but some still feel unnecesarily long. The way women are handled still feels really alien. And wtf is up with lanfear? Idk, i dont like characters who are 100% only motivated by obsessive love. Maybe she'll get more depth, I hope so.
