- I found the new lore very interesting, especially parts of the setting, and it sets things up very well for the emotional climax of the book.
- The writing and dialogue are still 👌
Things I didn’t like:
- I didn’t find the primary character conflict of the book as satisfying as I hoped it would be, in either its origins or resolution. Who knows though, maybe I’ll change my mind on my first (or second) reread.
