"The Knight’s Shadow (book 2) in the Great Coat Series was very well paced and displayed enough difference to the Traitor's Blade (book 1) so as not to be a run on while maintaining a good connectivity to the plot and character structure. I would also add, the narrator is phenomenal and really gives the listener pause to think weather or not it’s still the same person. Love these book so far and can’t wait to read book 3. "
