I enjoyed this one even more energetically than the first. Here is how I know how much I liked it: there are several problems with the storytelling, where the author simply ignores the difficult questions of how, where, why, and some of the defects are a bit glaring. But I didn't care! I wanted to know what happens next and more important than that I wanted to continue in the complex and compelling atmosphere which pervades the whole story. He made me care about the characters, the plot, and the words. I consider it an achievement when the writing is more compelling than the mistakes are off-putting. I look forward to reading the next book.
