Having just finished TBOL, I have to say I was slightly disappointed. I throughly enjoyed The Expected One, mostly due to the way in which the characters were protrayed and developed throughout the story. Both their internal conflicts and external interactions were well written and engaging. With TBOL however, I felt as if none of the things I enjoyed in The Expected One were present. While the sections on Matilda's life were interesting, I much prefer to read about Maureen's story. The thought the author focused far too much time on the past and then had to rush through the ending. I was left feeling as if there wasn't a full explaination on either what Maureen discovers within TBOL or what the other characters think of her discover. I'm still planning on reading The Poet Prince (simply because I hate to leave a series unfinished), but I hope Ms. McGowen goes back to the style she first used in The Expected One and gives her readers more time with the characters they have invested so much time with. ]]> <![CDATA[Kate added 'The Serpent's Tale']]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/50860697 The Serpent's Tale (Mistress of the Art of Death, #2) by Ariana Franklin
