What the heck happened!? Classic second book syndrome I think.
I’m not sure why so many sides plots half baked got into this book but maybe it’s to be properly completed in the next?
We get more POVs in this book which I was excited about, but I ended not caring much about any of them because as I would try to sink my teeth in , we moved on without much resolution. The pacing needless to say is quick and how I do enjoy my stories but a more defined overall main plot would have been good.
Cegos crazy growth in character also made things a little ridiculous, so much power and I felt cheated of the great authentic fight scenes we got in book one that we loved. Yes, the scenes were grander in scale in this book but it just felt like a Transformers cliche fight scene opposed to the cool stuff you get with Jackie Chan. How I made sense there!
I’m hoping book 3 brings back the good stuff in book 1.
