I really enjoyed the sequel much more than the first book. You can really tell the author has grown and feels incredibly more confidant within the world.
Instead of having to focus on the world building, we were able to focus on the characters more and their struggles.
The plot certainly took a completely different direction than I thought, which was GREAT! I was thinking this story would lose its nautical tones and influences, but it ended up being the exact opposite.
The return of one of the most complex characters from the first book I think had to be my favorite part. He was hysterical, and I couldn’t stop grinning the entire time. I have so many jokes marked off in the ARC because he’s just so funny!
I also enjoyed watching the maturation of Caro because she was very insecure even at the end of book one. It was a gradual and nice change because people certainly do not change with the snap of their fingers. Her relationship with Markos also felt more real if that makes sense. It was really genuine and sweet.
By the way the villains in this story are so numerous and so evil, and I LOVED IT! I was shaking my book in anger and betrayal so many times- I’ve lost count now. My fangirl screams certainly are seen in my Instagram story haha.
This story was just soooo much better than the first, and I’m so thankful I could review and read it. I really hope there’s a spin off to this world because Sarah certainly set up that possibility in the end, but I’m going to miss Markos and Caro so much!
