The magically-focused political thriller continues, along with an exploration of morality, ethics, disguised identities, intentions, and more. First half felt a little slow; not sure we needed to spend that much time with “Plan B.” I loved the irony of the name, btw. Second half made up for it at a roaring pace, though! Very curious to see how this trilogy ends, which says a lot because I generally dislike series and sequels.
