The Fight of the Fallen by Melissa Delport
3.0
From a story perspective, the second installment of Quinn and friends is probably worth a rating of 3.5 or even 4. And, wow, does it end on a cliff-hanger. I'm really glad that I have book three sitting on my bookshelf already.
The lower rating is because I found the sudden changes in pace a little disconcerting a lot of the time. There were chapters where something undramatic was happening - a conversation, perhaps - and then suddenly in the very next sentence of that same chapter the same character was suddenly running through a forest or a street on some suddenly urgent mission. The same thing seemed to happen whenever any star-crossed lovers were in proximity to each other: there is a lot of angst when it comes to relationships in this story.
So some good parts and some not-as-good parts, but nonetheless, I'll be continuing with the series. And I look forward to doing so :)
