Also how cool Sarai's, Sparrow, and Nova's gift are after they change for better or worse.
Not to mention the fact that Kora is Korako. Not to mention Rook, Warren and Kiska who are the most badass characters reveals ever.
This is one of the best sequel fantasy books ever. Laini Taylor is a fantastic YA author. I felt a whole lot in the second half of February reading this and wish I'd done it sooner.

In general this duology worked really well for me because of the almost philosophical undertone in this carefully crafted fantasy world. I like how the books give freedom to believe that there’s all kinds of worlds existing next to eachother.
