The adventures of Morgan Mackenzie and her sidekick Lulu the Loofah continue!

The [Skyclad Sorceress] has made new friends and discovered she has some enemies. Now, along with the Worldwalker Dana and the survivors of the Expedition, she is working to get out of the Wildlands.

Meanwhile, the Deskren have beseiged Fort Expedition and The General rides with his troops to their relief. He is followed by The Hammer, leading the Children of the First Beast. Certainly an impressive and dangerous force, but will they get to Expedition in time to save the city? If they arrive in time, can they hold the walls until the Tribes arrive?

As the northern continent slips deeper into autumn and winter, the Empire in the south prepares for spring and the planting of crops. Their raiding campaign into the north has not gone well, and tensions are rising as food shortages loom. All is not as it seems in Nouveau Deskra.

The length of this book was a bit disappointing, especially after the long wait. and sadly it really focused a lot on characters I didn't like/care about. So their chapter's dragged on and on while morgons and the rest of the wildlands expedition seemed to fly by. Also there was no chapters on some characters from the first book which is a bit of a shame.

Bit of a letdown but was still enjoyable.

This is a good book but feels like a small filler instead of a full sequel. Look forward to the next instalment

Frustratingly short

Seems like the majority of this book isn't Morgan... thats all I have to say :)

Filler vibes

Morgan's narrative continues to be captivating. The oration remains clear and skillfully executed.

However, my only reservation in rating this installment as highly as the first lies in me wanting more. While the story is undeniably good, occasionally reaching greatness, I can't shake the feeling that there should have been more despite the respectable length.

The frustrating thing whilst writing this review is that I can't quite put my finger on why I feel like something is missing or what that missing thing may be.

Shorter but still sweet

It’s a good book, would have liked more Morgan in it though. Plus, it feels a little short, like things could have been fleshed out a bit. Too many things happened that warranted character responses that got none.

I’m getting GoT season 8 vibes. I do hope that the sequel addresses this…

A decent second instalment
