Poisoned Blade by Kate Elliott
5.0
Gah! I am still reeling from this book. Not as much of a cliffhanger as the last one, thank goodness. I don't think I could take that! But it definitely left me wanting to know more while still resolving some major plot points and giving a measure of closure.
I felt like the pacing was better with this book than in the last one. In the last one, I found myself bored in certain parts but this book held my interest throughout.
I appreciate Jessamy as the MC POV even if I want to shake her from time to time. Or perhaps especially because I want to shake her. I look forward to seeing how she continues to be shaped by the events of this book.
I was hoping for further insight into the discoveries of the buried ruins from the first book but this one didn't explore that as much. However you do get more insight into the sparks.
There are plenty of emotional gut punches throughout. Some of them I expected. Some of them were a huge surprise.
A fun read! I am definitely looking forward to the next installation!!
