Soul of the Sword by Julie Kagawa
4.0
This was a fun sequel!
The only thing I didn't really enjoy was how often foreign words are used. I listened to the audiobook, but I think if I had read the physical book, I would have seriously struggled and I think it would have taken away from the story. With the audiobook, they say it correctly and it just keeps going, although sometimes I was a little confused because of how often the foreign words are used.
I enjoyed the different POVs, although it did take some getting used to that Kage Tatsumi wasn't actually himself in this book, he was Hakaimono (yes, I did copy and paste the names since I listened to the audibook!). I really loved the group of characters this book has. They are all so different and easy to remember who is who even with the less familiar names.
The ending was such a whirlwind and I had no guesses as to what was going to happen. It leads perfectly into the third book which I can't wait to read!
