I forgot how much I loved the first book, and reading this second one has really redoubled my love for Cabal and the writing style in these books. I laughed out loud multiple times. Cabal as a character is great, even better now with the addition of a soul and conscience. And of course the whole murder mystery of it all was great as well. 

The only thing about this I slightly disliked was that the last story was so fully disconnected from the main novel that it was hard to pivot. I had to wait some days and read it later, and although I did like it I would have rather seen in separately in a short story collection of sorts.
