A great sequel to the first book. The mysteries slowly unfold and makes for a book that's difficult to put down. I like how character-driven the books are and that the politics are actually interesting.
My only criticism would be the excessive repetition of information - I guess it's good conduct to write a book that doesn't expect of its readers to have read the first one in the series, but it also meant a lot of re-hashing.
On to the third book - can't wait to see what happens!
