I have to say I didn’t enjoy this book as much as the first. There were issues i had with the first one which I didn’t mind, but with this book I did. There are so many leaps the author makes and I just don’t see how they’re possible. I also felt like the tournament was a contrived way of adding tension, violence, and an attempt at a love triangle.
There were also times when I felt the Book was confused, particularly at the start and the author didn’t know where she wanted to go.
For me, the storyline was too similar to the first book, especially the second half where it was almost identical to the first. If you’re binge reading, or even reading them in order you need a little variety.
Again, I felt the language was clunky and the action scenes were stilted.
I’m still interested to see what happens in the series, but I’ll need a change up.
