While the second book in the series it is more of a continuation of the first book. The events set in the original book continue and get finished out in this one so it is more of a ‘book one part two’ than a ‘book two’. I really like the realism of the story and at no point did it get too far fetched to be plausible.
So far so good. I have no idea what the third book will bring as most of the pressing events have been dealt with. In fact, one could stop at this second book if they wanted as the exposition is a perfect stopping point but as for me I think I will keep reading to see what happens.
