Still going, love how the POV is switching multiple times in a chapter now.

[Scott]

Liked that too. Never once felt bogged down in any of the chapters

[Sky]

Almost done, another hour...I forgot to add, after 2.75 books, I kinda like Nila instead of hating her :)

[Scott]

She definitely grew on me too

[Bill]

I don't remember hating her but can't say I didn't. Think she is on the verge of turning into the most badass character besides the gods.

[Rob, Mayor of Ghost Town]

Ugh. I'll be mad if Olem or Bo die. It seems like at least one of them will though. For some reason him showing up sick made me think of Doc Holiday in the movie Tombstone.

And I was pretty indifferent towards Nila. I found her chapters slow. That hasn't been the case in this book though. I like that she's sort of fumbling her way towards badassdom.

[Suzanne]

I'm not quite done with this section, but.....I'm guessing that Ricard set up the explosion himself. It wouldn't be the first time a political candidate used tragedy to generate sympathy votes.

I'm glad that Tamas is at least getting clues that the Kez may not have broken the truce after all.

I never hated Nyla, but I'm liking her more now that she's becoming strong.

There are so many plot points that need to wrapped up. Can he do it!?

[Conor]

I never hated Nila, but her parts, especially in book 1, were utterly pointless. I have no idea why McClellan even put them in given that the pacing was otherwise one of the book's strongest aspects. In this one I find her rapid leveling up to be a bit forced but her parts are way more interesting so I don't really mind.
