I really enjoyed this sequel almost as much as I did [b:The Warded Man|3428935|The Warded Man (Demon Cycle, #1)|Peter V. Brett|http://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1354571949s/3428935.jpg|6589794]. My only gripe would be that the first part of the book, showing us Jirdans viewpoint, was a little too long. I really thought this book was going to be solely about him until the story went back to Arlen and Leesha.
