A solid follow-up to the first installment. The characters are just as complex and nuanced as ever, with some compelling development from almost the entire cast. Abercrombie effectively differentiates the characters at the start of this book from the characters at the end. It doesn't get 5 stars because the plot still feels a little hollow, serving as a bridge to the next book.
