Some of the battle descriptions get a bit long for my taste, An really enjoying the characters. ( ) Probably one of the most solid sophomore novels I've ever encountered! Absolutely loved how deeply we got to dive into characters we met in book one. We don't know everything about how this world works, but that's exactly what makes me, as a reader, want to keep reading! In fact, I'd make this review longer but I am desperate to swan-dive into book III of this awesome series. Do yourself a favor. READ THIS SERIES! I rarely write reviews but I felt compelled to do so for this book. This book, and the series that it is part of, is perhaps the best fantasy series I have read in many years. When I opened the pages I found that the rest of the world melted around me and I became completely absorbed in the characters and their trials. I cannot wait for further books in the series. Still quite enjoying this, though it is not as good as Malice. First, it wades too much into YA territory for my liking, especially because of a new character, Coralen, which I absolutely hated (not in the good way, like the Lannisters, for example, but for being a badly written one and purely annoying). Second, each ruler in this world has an advisor and each advisor is secretly a traitor - which gets really boring and unsurprising. Third, there's a lot of evil being done by some characters, yet all those around them, in their thusands, are all incredibly dumb and never even have doubts, which is not believable. Also, the magic is just a deux ex machina to force forward some moments. On the good side, I still love the writing, and some characters do evolve or devolve, which is well done. There's also more giantish POV, which I liked, and more about the Vikings, sorry Vin Thaluns, which are much more credible antagonists than Nathair (that seems rather dull and not too smart in this volume). Hope the next book in the series is better and with less (everybody) running around. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

"Corban flees his homeland searching for peace, but he soon discovers that there is no haven in the west as the agents of Rhin and roaming bands of giants hound his every step. Veradis leaves the battleground and rushes to his King's side. But he has witnessed both combat and betrayal and his duty weighs heavily upon him. Maquin seeks only revenge, but pirate slavers and the brutal world of pit-fighting stand in his way. Nathair becomes embroiled in the wars of the west as Queen Rhin marches against King Owain. The need to find the cauldron of the giants drives him on. Sides are chosen and oaths will be fulfilled or broken in a land where hell has broken loose."--Amazon.com.
