Siege and Storm

I like the world and the variety of characters and the pacing...really everything except for the all-powerful-yet-carried-away-by-romance-and-the-whims-of-men-female-heroine.

This second book in the Shadow and Bone Trilogy starts with new hope and ends with the disaster you see coming. I don't know how anyone could read this one and not dive right into the third book.

The writing is good - doing exactly what I ask from a book - transporting me to another world full of different opportunities and challenges.
