Book 2 is much faster and riveting than its first. Firstly... I'm obsessed with Rip. Giving me major Hawke vibes. Also, shoutout to the tent trope. It becomes more clear in this book that we are NOT rooting for King Midas and that there probably won't be redemption for him (phew!). We get more of Queen Malina as well, who I don't particularly care for, but it'll be interesting to see how her scheming plays out. The Auren-Rip slowburn is killing me. We learn more about Auren's dark past, so trigger warnings.
