While I really liked this book I have to be honest in that I personally didn’t enjoy it as much as the previous books, I still liked it at the 4 star level and feel that it’s easily 5 star quality though. The book somehow manages to feel like both a lot and nothing happen throughout most of it at the same time, the story progresses but the only thing I can think to compare it to ultimately is a set up episode with a mini boss, or “your princess is in another castle” despite the larger scale of the conflict in it. What I mean to say is while some small revelations are made it doesn’t really give the feelings of anything being resolved leaving lots for the next book. The main character also spends less time in his original world in this book and in a way that didn’t quite scratch the itch I hoped. I’ve said this before it’s hard to write reviews for good books because it’s easier to criticize something than to express enjoyment in words so to clarify the things above are personal feelings not criticisms and the book is still a good continuation of one of my favorite series and it was brought to life fantastically by the group over at Soundbooth Theater.
