Not as good as the first one, but I think I know why. It was only supposed to be a duology so when the author turned it into a trilogy this became a filler so not a lot of actual action happens. You can tell they are leading up to something epic that will happen in book 3. This was a lot of planning, trying to gain ally‘s, running & hiding. Ended on quite a cliffhanger though so I‘m going to have to read book 3 asap! #seriesread2022 @TheSpineView
