a very solid sequel to an incredible first instalment. harper kept me hooked the whole way and i am still keen to read the last of the tale, which is always a good sign. i do think parts of the plot could be more thoroughly written; some actions that amara takes deserve more than the few lines that are given as explanation. but the novel is very entertaining, quite stressful (in a good way) and i am interested to know what happens next, so you can’t complain.
