#2 - Crescent City
Are we kidding? It took me half a beat to return to this world but Maas' worldbuild is extensive and I quickly found my footing once more. Bryce and Hunt are back and I'm glad they are. This is now a soap opera as Maas explores a number of other characters, offering us an expansion on what has gone before. Still sex-filled, still twisty, still an adventure, we are faced with new enemies and friends, not to mention new systems. The Astronomer for one...well, that was something I didn't expect. Also one moment that took me completely by surprise. (Hence the "Are we kidding?") I am thrilled that the third book is readily available because whatever's coming...I'm here for it.
5/5
