Review of 'Waking gods' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

I enjoyed this more than the first. I think the style of storytelling has grown on me, and it is really well suited for the quick pacing of the book. This second installment definitely has more of its own insular story than the first book, which was one of my main gripes about the first. I personally don't like the idea of one cohesive story being chopped up into three books, but this book broke that trend.

Otherwise, some of my same complaints still hold true. I still found that the characters were written way too similarly. I look forward to the last installment!
