The Memory of Souls by Jenn Lyons
4.5
While The Ruin of Kings so far remains my favourite book in the series, Memory of Souls is now in second place. Of the three, it's also my favourite in terms of the way it is narrated.
Avoiding spoilers makes it impossible to speak about the book in anything other than very general terms. There's so much I love about this series which is continued here - the characters, the intricate worldbuilding, the complicated relationships arising from even more complex family trees. Sometimes the plotting isn't as strong as I might prefer but that's only an occasional complaint, at other times it can be superb.
After the major events taking place in the last few chapters of this book, I'm very keen to get to book four without too much delay. I find myself curious whether the narration will change once again.
