This was a great sequel that I think lived up to the first book. It took me a while to get through because I kept putting it down, and so much happens so quickly that if you forget what's going on it's hard to get back into it. When I just sat down and read it went much quicker.  The world-building in this series is great, and I love Merlin and Susan. I could perhaps have done with a little less information about the cars, but that's also a sort of world-building thing so it wasn't the most annoying thing I've ever read. The plot moved fast and as always, the booksellers were a delight.
