Review: Better than the first book, except for the "poetry"
Rating: 4 out of 5

If you read the first book and enjoyed it, buying this one is a no-brainer. The new story is a little darker and a less naive than the first book. The story is less fantasy and more metaphysical, while a bit convoluted, it is still intriguing-However, the poetry is overdone, clumsy, even unbearable. The author even jokes within the story at one point how bad it is. Note to author: Please do not write so much poetry in book three (please no more AABB  rhyme scheme!), in fact you might be better served to avoid poetry altogether. I could not even bear to read most of it.  My only regret is that the sequel will not be ready until next year.
