A Torch Against the Night

This book in many ways was so much better than the first. The world was vastly expanded beyond the walls of Blackcliff and we really go to know these characters and follow them on this journey for/against the Empire.

One aspect I really enjoy about Sabaa Tahir's writing and storytelling is how complete each book feels. I'm left with questions about the fate of the characters but I'm also content with the end. With the end of this book, I'm completely satisfied. That being said there are two more books which I cannot wait for. However, I'm more anticipating seeing these characters again rather than having a burning question about the plot (hopefully that makes sense).
