This is really a 4 and a a half star book for me. A lot of the errors from The Crown Conspiracy have been fixed and you adore Royce and Hadrian even more than you already did. I sped through this book while keeping in mind work and it is the Christmas season. There were just a few things that I didn't like that keep me holding back that little half star though it was mostly connections in the book that didn't overly make sense but that's just kind of a minor personal preference. Really looking forward to finishing the rest of the series, just sad my bookstore didn't have it so I have to wait on amazon. I appreciate the balance Sullivan struck in the Riyria Chronicles--too often books of this genre get polluted with gratuitous violence and raunchiness that merely mask a storyline that may not have been as well developed by an author before embarking on the literary journey. As a reader, while I appreciate a good action scene (of which the Heir of Novron, among the others, had plenty of fantastic action scenes--which Tim Gerard Reynolds did great justice to in his narration), I appreciated the nuances to the storyline that you provided in your series and the effort you put into developing your characters which allowed readers like me to invest/buy into their reality.
Book two, better than the first. Where's book three? Out of my way, gotta get to book three!
