I love the characters, world, and story, but the dependence on the memories really kills my excitement a little. It wasn't too bad in the first book but this one relied on it way too much, and it just killed the momentum of the story every time it happened, sometimes multiple times a chapter. Really hope the third book doesn't have that problem.
I have finished this book and working on a full review for my YouTube channel, Pages of Light! - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCq9v4MKGNcFNZaeVMtH3bjw/
An awesome second act to an awesome series
A gripping story that continues from the first in the series exploring the consequences of actions driven by two sides who think they are in the right. There are so many intriguing themes to explore in this narrative, from the question of free will in a world with gods and the ability to see in the future to the choice of the individual over the greater good. I can't wait to read the final installment and go back and reread these two. I hope James never stops writing! He is definitely my new favorite fantasy author
