Overall good book, not quite as good as the first.

The storytelling here is just as good as the first book, it hits similar high points for me, being Ryun destroying things with a grin on his face. I have to say, I find Zach to be a MUCH less compelling character, and even though this book expands on him a lot, I don’t think that problem has been fixed. I often find myself just waiting for the next Ryun chapter, and this book is primarily about Zach. There were some story choices made in this book that I found to be questionable, primarily the sudden deaths of a number of characters I was beginning to really like, but I can still say that I’m excited for the third book. I just hope it goes back to focusing on Ryun, with Zach as a secondary MC.
