The many weaknesses and flaws are particularly frustrating because this series doesn't feel like just another slight variation on a decades-old formula. It is fresh and interesting and intriguing and surprising things are happening. The world feels real and full of detail and the book isn't afraid of unexpected twists and turns.
But the author fails miserably at keeping it all together and consistent. It's chaos, full of utterly absurd, illogical, and contradictory details and scenes, many of which don't even serve any purpose at all. It's just a confused mess. Nothing actually holds together if you look at anything for more than a second. To be fair the first book already was quite messy, but it was still tolerable for me.
With these kinds of chaotic sequels, I always ask myself how nobody noticed any of this in the editing and alpha reader reviewing or even just when reading through the final script for the last time.
There are only 3 potential explanations that make sense to me.
1. The author noticed but knew that a timely release is more important than proper proofreading and authors with different priorities just rarely manage to release anything.
2. There are a lot more people that simply don't notice these discrepancies than I can even imagine.
3. A lot of authors are so careless in editing and proofreading their books that nobody notices any of this stuff until it is already released.
Regardless of which one it is, giving this 2 stars is generous.… (mehr)
