The Grimrose Path (Trickster, #2)

What a fantastic followup to Son of the Trickster! I loved every character and the story of Jared finding himself in BC was a perfect progression of his story. I immediately borrowed the third book and I can't wait to read the conclusion of the trilogy!

Also, big thanks to Robyn for the great recommendation!

This was a great continuation of the series started with Son of a Trickster. Robinson does a great job of presenting a protagonist who faces relatable challenges that would be difficult for any young person to cope with - Jared has to deal with issues about identity and belonging, escaping cycles of violence and dysfunction, and trying to stay connected to his heritage while building a life for himself.
The fact that he's the son of a trickster spirit, and is living in a house filled with otherworldly beings, is an extra layer put on top of all that, but one that doesn't define Jared's experience, and the story is stronger for it.

The new setting and supporting cast are all interesting and enjoyable, and add a lot of depth to the book.
