Solid follow-up to the first volume! Hard to repeat the guy-punch that was Vol. 1 but I love the mix of lore and action.

They kept up the momentum of the first volume which is great because I was worried they wouldn't keep up that level of interest/ intensity while simultaneously not rushing through the story. The art is really beautiful too. Not too scary but enough to add the fear element.

Unfortunately, worse than the last book. Lost a lot of its potential in my eyes and was way too wordy.
