crusoe 's review for:

Jagersgoud by Philip Reeve
4.5
adventurous dark emotional tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Predator's gold isn't as good as mortal engines, mainly because the world-building was so damn compelling in the first part! 

However, this story is still very solid with great (new) characters, fun twists and turns in the plot
(Hester being Valentine’s daughter! Tom being shot by Polei!!)
and some rich new information about the world. 

I especially liked the detail of Uncle's network and the rise of the Green Storm. I need to get my hands on the 3rd and 4th part so I can continue living in this world for a little while.
