I will say I did enjoy this book. Much like the first book, this did have a lot of...oh let's say familiar characters and places from other novels such as the mention of a large chain across a river. Dispite the similarities it is it's own story and a good one at that. Very fast paced, exciting and fun. Never would have thought sorcery and black powder rifles would be so kick ass. Can't wait till February for book 3. Book two definitely feels like a second part to something bigger. Just like the Back to the Future films had a final feel with what if's after movie one, and movie two had a big opening into the world for book three, the Crimson Campaign makes you long for the finale in book three.The events that happen in this book have proper foreshadowing, but as in life, not all goes as expected - a bad situation actually turns out good - before it goes bad again - a good thing goes bad only to have needed to become bad to become good - and all I am doing is confusing you, right? well, believe me when I say that if you enjoyed Promise of Blood, then you will enjoy the Crimson Campaign even more.When book three finally emerges from the depths of book stores and the e-book market, I will be getting my copy and finding out how it all will end. Thank you Brian McClellan for giving me such a great book to read before I go into NaNoWriMo - you are an inspiration.
