This series starts out very good and would still have this credit to its account except it is easy to see that Mr. Wight is doing what all writers of lengthy sagas do and that is turning what should be one volume into two or three. More volumes equals more sales. I am sure I..
There are lots of things I could say here, but overall this was much less enjoyable than the first book. Will continue on to the 3rd it hopes of seeing improvement though.

This book made the weak points in the prequels worthwhile. Great descriptive storytelling, character development, and plot.

First three hours are a bit dragging but it slowly picks up. Everything was necessary because it develops connections and hopefully brings you to care for the characters. After that I believe it gets more interesting not much action but the dialogue is fun to listen to. Thats all I have for now, but it..
The premise is interesting enough and I enjoy the characters, however it feels like the exposition is heavily drawn out.
