This second installment of the series is equally as good as the first. The excitement of solving the mystery of who's trying to kill who because of what, remains the same. To this end, I am impressed with Crane's power of deduction and Stephen's intuitive skills. 

Speaking of these two MCs,
Crane and Stephen's relationship seemed perilous at first, especially with Crane not knowing where he stands when Stephen does his disappearing act. But we learn that Crane's concern about Stephen's detachment is unfounded as the story progresses. 

The novel wouldn't be complete without disturbing descriptions of unnatural possessions so you might not want to be eating while reading this book.

The Magpie Lord felt like such a contained story that I wasn't sure what to expect from this sequel. But it's such a fun addition to the story! I like it when a sequel feels like a complete story to itself, and this did. A good, quick read.
