The Shadow Throne

2/3 of it were so YA (and 90%of the characters are teen girls) that I got bored a lot, did not connect with the story and found way too many not believable situations and deus ex machina. 2 stars at best. The last third, though, was finally the great kind of book I expected after the first volume, with good intrigues, politics and war. 5/5 and enticing enough to make me jump immediately to the next book in the series.
