Tangled Webs

A very good continuation of the personal quests of Liriel and Fyodor. The new set of supporting casts and villains are also rather unique and quite interesting. The story sees quite a bit of growth from both the main characters, and Liriel even has a crisis of faith. Liriel's drow character is also very believable, the way she thinks and acts is superbly yet subtly tied back to her upbringing and her people. The growing love between the two characters of such differing background was also well-written, it highlights their trepidations and their fears, while still acknowledging their bond. The conclusion was very satisfying and has a nice short section that ties into the third book.
