Really amazing worldbuilding. Exciting story without a lot of filler. I liked the non-linear nature of the first part. Plenty of swashbuckling. Lacking interesting female characters, but overall a very fun read.
A very swashbuckling adventure. I liked the first one more (more complete world building and a more compelling and tight story) but this one was certainly good. Enjoyed seeing another side of "thievery", even though the heist wasn't as central a plot point. Felt a little contrived and rushed eventually, but I maintain that it was enjoyable throughout. Excited to see what the third has in store.
