I think what I liked most about this story was how connected to the first book and world created it is. There is not really an overarching plot but the characters from the first book are an intrinsic part of this story.
Trent and Kristof are wonderful as tgey deal with their issues together and so supportive of each other. How often do you hear a character say that they love a partner with issues?
Joel Leslie, as always, is a joy to listen to.
