Tore through the book. I loved the first one, though it set an impossible standard to follow. This is still a great book. The action is intense, the stakes are high and it's overall a very immersive experience to read.

I saw a lot more of the twists coming this time, but that can also be satisfying. And overall it was a fascinating read, I feel like I learned something new.
