mysterious
sad
tense
medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
A mix
Strong character development:
Yes
Loveable characters:
Complicated
Diverse cast of characters:
Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Complicated
It's difficult with sequels, they're either better or lacking something. Kuang nailed her sequel. It's not only better, it's more dimensional and deeper than one could have imagined.
It's harsh, emotional and devastating - an absolutely wonderful read for fantasy/history lovers!
