pickReceived to review!
I loved this almost as much as the first book, though several things about it made me quite sad. I loved Gabriel's slow realisation that the world is beginning to touch him again, and that in some ways, he wants it to; I love, as ever, his courtesy, and the fact that he truly cares about justice.
Hurrah for receiving a review copy! Started digging in yesterday. So far a few threads have got started, but I'm not that far into it, so I'm wondering exactly how things are going to escalate.
I worry that a particular likeable character will be the culprit, given the way the first book worked out... But it'll depend on whether Sally Smith is the kind of writer to repeatedly rely on the same kind of signals as to who might be the villain.
