Customer Reviews
Good Suspence
Good suspense. Interesting story plot. I’m streaming it to see how well the TV series turned out. So far I’d say, best to listen to the audio book first (or read the story).
Overall a Great Sequel
The first 30% of this book gave me mixed feelings. I wasn’t invested in the viewpoint from which the story was being told. As the story progressed, it evolved in a way I did not see coming, melding the narratives and by the end I was once again, excited to get to the next book in the series.
Different perspective
I hear a lot of people aren’t a fan of this one but I absolutely loved it. It does all eventually connect back to the characters from book one.
