![]() Sometimes, we get the POV of one interesting character, we have to wait 50, or in some cases, 150 pages long before we get to their POV again. However, their appearance was so burdened by tons of other boring character’s POV. ![]() There have been more than one hundred character names by the second book now, and only four characters-the Red Knight, Bad Tom, Jean de Vraily, and Mortirmir-were compelling to me. ![]() None of the characters were intriguing enough.

However, to summarize, the sheer number of useless POV’s are back, and they just seem to get worse for me. I mean, I could seriously copy-paste my review of the first book, and it would still work on why this book/series just won’t click for me.
