Rounding this up to 4 stars from my personal rating of 3.5.
This book's strength lies in the central plot continued from the first book. It's mysterious, tense, and at times shocking. The world's history is rich and evolving in a really interesting way.
It's weakness for me lies in the pacing. The book moves quick. Multiple times I was surprised to be done with a scene. It brings you right to the beginning of excitement and then cuts to black, coming back in after it's resolved. Some of the plot twists feel like they came out of nowhere.
I enjoyed the continuation of this series and I want to see how it goes, I just may be willing to wait a while.
