Girish’s last review of the year

really liked it
This sequel is slower on pace with a single floor throughout the novel with 2 different quests. The latter quest not only slowing down the pace of the novel overall but also weaker compared to book-1. The story overall is much better with solid setup for book-3 and both characters have amazing moments to shine. Credit also to brilliant audio-book narration done by Jeff Hays and the narrative keeps getting better.
