" This is the second book of the series, I think this book is a lot better than the first one. Some reviews didn't give this a good review, said Modesitt Jr. was "predictable." I found there were some parts of the book that were predictable but that's ok because the parts that aren't will surprise you. I was very surprised with the ending and I can't wait to read the next one. "
