@jayeless If you do continue, be prepared for a big shift in storytelling and pacing in book 2. I think all three books work best taken together as a whole, IMO book 2 is weak as its own volume.

@jayeless a friend and I were reflecting on this series recently and in retrospect think it was overhyped, and that books 2 and 3 followed the less interesting questions from book 1. I’d vote there are other books more worth your time 😉
