This book was definitely an improvement over the first one. The story was good, the characters were really interesting this time, and the story was a tad less predictable (although it still did not manage to surprise me very often).
The grammar has not improved very much either, there are still a lot of missing commata, and I also found a few typos.
All in all, I'll continue reading the series, not only because the covers are awesome, but because the end of part two has me interested in what will happen.

It's fine, but could really have used an editing pass. There's a lot of minor but noticeable errors. Still worth reading. Better than The Written, but not quite at the 4/5 stage yet.
