The first installment in this series was a gripping read that blew me out of the water, but I will admit that Fevered Star did seem to suffer a bit from second book syndrome. The story is still interesting, the world is just a gorgeously described as before, and the characters are richly created, but the plot doesn't move very much. Be prepared for a bit of a deep-diving expedition into the inner workings of the characters. Roanhorse is great at creating a world and there is so much that is unique about this series. The world-building is incredibly complex and the political tension is deftly woven. I'm hoping for a bit more of a moving and shaking conclusion to the trilogy, but Fevered Star did draw me back into this fabulous world and reminded me how much I want from this series.
