This second book is action packed and is building on character development started in the first one. I am on the fence about the constant flash forwards.

This book keeps picking up speed. This has what the last one was missing and more so far.

This book started out fast and hasn’t slowed down.

It started out interesting, slogged down a little, and now is picking up speed.

This book has the feel of a bunch of side quests so far. Not as good as the first two yet.

This series reads smoothly. It’s an easy read with enough character and plot twists to keep me turning the pages.

This is a nice easy read after the dark and complicated book I just finished.

If I had realized how good this was I would’ve read it a long time ago.

Great series so far I am glad I discovered this author.

Even better than the last book.

I am surprised I haven't discovered this author before now. Good stuff.

It's been a long time since I have read Alastair Reynolds. I had forgotten how much I like this author.

This reminds me a bit of Morgan Llewelyn.

Character driven stories are my favorite and this is that.

This story reads more smoothly as I am adjusting to the complex plot. Great job summarizing and clarifying in the introduction.

I like this so far. Nona reminds me of X-23.

So far I really like this story. Most of the reviews that complained about this book said it took too long to get to the action. Personally, I like the extra character development.

The complex beginning of a powerful noble house is interesting.

Time for me to get back to epic fantasy.

I really like the big ideas in this. That’s what draws me to certain sci fi writers also.

I like the way this author mixes extra sensory perception ideas together with vampire legends.

Great book. It's hard to put down I want to see how it ends.

I really like the atmospherics. It builds suspense. It seems slow at times but that adds to the overall vibe of the setting.

This book is pulling me in. It’s definitely slow build and somewhat obvious, but I really like the author’s insight into Welsh society.

Slow and atmospheric so far. The jury is still out on this one.

Great plot. The character development is slow but steady. It's hard not to like Harry.

I can't believe I haven't read Lumley until now. So far so good.

A ton of characters, but this author knows how to move a plot quickly. He is an expert at holding the reader’s attention.
