The sequel unfolds at a much slower pace compared to its predecessor, focusing almost only on the preparation and training for war. It's fascinating to observe multiple generations undergoing transformation, yet I found too much characters a little bit confusing. The main bad guys appear abruptly and are somewhat comical. I would like more deaths of some more significant characters; instead, only peripheral ones meet their end, some barely mentioned a couple of times. Dialogues are sometimes confusing, with moments lacking coherence and fluidity in the narrative. I found myself several times unsure of what exactly was happening and who was speaking. Nevertheless, the story remains thrilling, and I'm curious to see where it leads.
