I don’t know. I feel the same way I felt after reading the first. “I read it.”  Just, meh. There’s a whole lot of rape/SA for there also being a forced-birth theme. And the names kill me. A fantasy series with magic and mysticism and then… you name a guard Kevin and a villain Tyler? A dragon named Gregory?? WHY. 

Other points… book 2 is still poorly written. Painful dialogue. Awkward interactions. Will I continue on this moderately painful quest? Undecided.
