A good follow up for Dance of Thieves. As with the first, the writing was engaging and easy to read, though I don’t know if the story will really stick for me. 

Kazi and Jace were lovely, the most vibrant characters in the book (obviously.) I did genuinely enjoy their romance arc, though it did feel rushed. I do wish there was more of them at the ending, though. The plot was a bit less predictable than the first book, which I was also grateful for. 

4 stars feels fair enough, because it was enjoyable enough of a read.

Wow. Great end to a superb duology! Adored the family dynamics in this second book (although, the first too) and the plot was very substantive.

An absolute worthy sequel.
I'm in love love love with Kazi and Jase's relationship. And the plot... I wish Mary E. Pearson would write more books of these two.
