Blackthorne by Stina Leicht

3.0

I wish this book did not suffer from middle-of-the-series-itus. I loved Cold Iron, but this sequel lacks focus. As is typical of contemporary, fat-fantasy novels, it jumps from character to character, never giving you any satisfying depth. Still, I really like certain characters—Nels and Suvi return from the first book, along with the new title character Blackthorne. I just wish the plot had been tighter and more coherent.
