Epic!

So much happens in this second book! Lots of reveals, twists and turns, and epic battles. The slower section from the previous book with Esme was groundwork for a much more interesting story, which was the only so-so parts of the previous novel.

I find the narrator fairly inconsistent. Sometimes great, other times lapsing into this weird dramatic voice. Maybe he thinks he’s making slower sections more interesting or something but it’s annoying.

Best of the series

strongest novel I have read by Bakker. builds from Judging Eye masterfully. Thrilling adventure for all 25 hours. Reader sounds like he's swallowing sometimes and changes pronunciation of some names sometimes but otherwise very good. I enjoy his far away yelling voice.
