With a really few shortcomings, a fair sequel to the first with a nauseated good last chapter.

It's quite a mixture, this series, with elements of old and new authors's ideas. My personal flaw (or advantage, may be) is that I haven't read nothing from Robert Jordan, so perhaps I'm giving the entry a bit more credit, than I should. Nevertheless, all combined, the reading pace and the intriguing plot jump-ons are just as go... It's quite a mixture, this series, with elements of old and new authors's ideas. My personal flaw (or advantage, may be) is that I haven't read nothing from Robert Jordan, so perhaps I'm giving the entry a bit more credit, than I should. Nevertheless, all combined, the reading pace and the intriguing plot jump-ons are just as good as in the first, with the story deepening in new more complicated ends, of course with some expected twists and one big heartbreaking one in the end (though I've seen that coming, I just didn't really wanted to believe it). Some POV's felt much disengaging and not that interesting, so I found myself rushing through these. There are also some world-building problems, which harassed me on the way, but it's fantasy after all, so these I'll leave on my belt with worries. I was for a 4, but the last chapter is just as shocking, as inevitable, so 4.5/5.

'Fans of Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson will find much to admire' Guardian on The Shadow of What Was Lost
AS SHADOWS RISE, A DARKNESS AWAKES
An amnesty has been declared for all Augurs - finally allowing them to emerge from hiding and openly oppose the dark forces massing against Andarra. However, as Davian and his new allies hurry north towards the ever-weakening Boundary, fresh horrors along their path suggest that their reprieve may have come far too late.
Meanwhile, Caeden continues to wrestle with the impossibly heavy burdens of his past. Yet as more and more of his memories return, he begins to realise that the motivations of the two sides in this ancient war may not be as clear-cut as they first seemed . . .
An Echo of Things to Come continues the epic story that began in The Shadow of What Was Lost, the acclaimed fantasy blockbuster from James Islington.
