Honestly a lot more enjoyable than the previous entry, which is understandable since the first book was basically all setup. The character voice is so unique and individual that it makes each pov switch a joy. I enjoyed but didn't love the plotting or action scenes personally. Glokta and Jezal made me want to keep reading!
