Review: A Stunning Sequel
Rating: 5 out of 5

With High Treason, the author has managed to pull off a rare feat - writing a sequel that surpasses the first book. The world she portrays is richer, the characters have more depth and the story itself is utterly gripping - I finished reading this terrific book in a couple of sittings.I am always wary of revealing too much information about the plot of any books as I do not wish to give away spoilers - but I will say that the opening of this book is both shocking and brilliant and will really catch the attention of readers.Once again, I must praise the characterisation of Hammer Mehran - who is fast growing into one of my favourite characters in contemporary fiction. I could list of a string of adjectives to describe him, but there is something indefinable yet compelling about him.High Treason sets an incredibly high standard for the other Kolian Chronicles books to follow. However, given the endless talents of this blossoming author I have no doubt he/she will match and surpass all such expectations.A must read book.
