Loving this saga

This book has me just as hooked as the first one. I finished this one in two days and now I am craving the next installment. December 2016 can't come quick enough!

Good book, but first one is still better

I really enjoyed the first book in the series. I gave it about a 4.5/5 stars. I also liked this one, however, I felt that it suffered from the "second" book syndrome. The ending was weak, IMO, and I felt myself wanting to skip some of the story lines as they were a bit slow. Overall, a good book and I will still read the last one, I just wished the book had a little bit more "oomph" to it. That happens sometimes with the second book in a trilogy.

Nice Sequel

This sequel was....interesting. It didn't seem as intense as the first book. I wish it had been. It seemed kind of repetitive. More than the first book. And there was only a few big fighting scenes. I don't know. I just wish there was more. There seemed to be more depth in the first book compared to this one.

I still enjoyed the sequel though. We got to see a little bit deeper side of the players because Sky Key ends up not being what they expected and puts their morals on the line. It challenges them differently than any of them expected. So that was kind of neat to see how each player reacts and deals with the situation. But more fighting or traveling or more interactions between players like the first book would have been nice, I think.

I still look forward to the next book to see how the rest unfolds. It should be interesting to see what happens and who wins (if anyone does).
