NOTE: This is the second book in a series. The Infinity Alchemist comes first. If you choose not to read The Infinity Alchemist before this, I feel like you will be extremely confused. So beware before reading any reviews!

The good:
- I enjoyed being able to see more of the alchemist world since we did not see too much of that in book one, Kacen is an extremely creative writer and it's brilliant.
- EXTREMELY twisty, which kept me on my toes and also almost made me cry.
- I feel like the pace of the story was done well overall.

The loss of 1.5 stars:
- Typically I enjoy politics in books, but this was extremely heavy on a new political system that was not explored in book one at all and I felt quite lost at points when it comes to the politics.
- The ending left me so confused. I'm really not sure if anything else is going to happen or what, but it was not so satisfying of an ending. 

Overall, if you liked the Infinity Alchemist for aspects outside of the romance, you'll like Chaos King.
