I am absolutely in love with this cast of characters, though?! Well, or Alucard, anyway. And Rhy as well, they're both amazing.
Although I think it was an interesting concept and helped exploring the cultures outside of Arnes, I just cannot see how the tournament was necessary at all. Neither Kell nor Lila really have a strong enough reason to compete. They're just competing to ... do something.
But then again, I did enjoy this book very much. I especially liked Kell and Alucard's dynamic. Kell doesn't seem to get along very well with anyone, really. Loving that for him.
To be honest, I can't remember all the warnings to put here.

It felt so long but I enjoyed the tournament a lot and Lila's development has been great (she was kinda insufferable during the first book) and I like her more now.
Kell per usual is my number one boy and I want to give him a hug asap
The king and queen can both fuck off and all of the ppl of red london

original review:
(4.5)
the first book read like a stand alone, but this one actually read like the middle book in a serious, with a cliffhanger ending that makes me want to reach for book 3.
also, kell and rhy’s relationship is amazing.
