A great continuation of the story. The plot is basically the same with a few new characters - the group is still after the relics and is reeling from the damage done by the incident at the peer from the previous book, but a new couple of supernaturals is in town to cause trouble. We see more of Arthur's brothers and learn more about his past in WWI and how he came to be involved in the magical world. The characters don't really evolve any and there's none of the sexual tension of the previous book, so it felt a bit unsatisfying in that regard. There's even less sex than the first book (which I harrumphed about in my review) which might be a plus for some readers. So, while Ace and Rory have become a beloved couple among the mm books I've read, I fear they may become a bit boring unless some real tension or drama happens in the third book.

Note that this sequel starts immediately after the first and hits the ground running. Many reviewers complained about this but, since I read the books back to back, I had zero issues - let's see what happens when the 3rd book is released.
