I am glad that you found this book very intriguing. I have read the first book of the series and loved it. Thanks for your wonderful review.

I was told that it gets better in the books to come. Thank you as well!

I don't know if you've read the first book, but that was my gripe with it as well. I also thought the characters weren't that well-developed, but then again, as you said, it's only the second book. Thanks for the great review!

Let’s see if those issues will improve in the books to come. Thanks for the comment!

The lack of female characters is my biggest flaw with this book as well. I enjoyed reading about different characters, but some diversity in that field would make the series even better. Good job on the review!

I agree to that! Thanks for taking time to read my review.

I am delighted to know that the pacing in the second book is faster than the first one. Even if there are no dull moments (for me) in the first book, I would love to read a story that will keep me on the edge of my seat.
