This is Wahrheit book 2, and I enjoyed book one so much that I dove right into this one. Thanks again to the author, as he shared an audible code with me for both.
This book packs a punch. It comes back with a vengeance, it comes back for...REVENGE. The novel itself amps up the author's previous work in book one; political intrigue, character development, and dialogue. The characters face more betrayals, more twists, more turns. Now they have to deal with greater interference from the fae as well. Will the new Queen rise to the occasion?
This author has such a way with wording combat that the action feels both incredibly vast, yet also personal. You can picture the carnage in the background of battle. You can picture the lines of men ready for action, but then at the same time, he's actually dialing it down and focusing on a single person within their midst. It's fantastic, but it's also my one small gripe with the novel. There simply wasn't enough. It felt kind of like starting over from the first with a similar buildup, rather than starting on the precipice from the first and opening wide.
Personally still a fantastic read and I cannot wait for book 3. Travis Baldree's narration is exquisite. A 4/5* for me.
