Another completely gripping book. There's an unusual timeline to this, the set up is half of the book and the characters from the last book only show up at the end, but it does make for interesting reading. Like the last book you know 'whodunnit' right from the start, and can pretty much see what's going to happen, but finding out how it all plays out is the fun part.
The character of Morris is also brilliantly done, he is of course an awful person, but you still feel for him at times (waiting 36 years to be able to finish your favourite book series...ouch). 
The ending also leads up really nicely to the third book, which I have of course went straight into.
