I liked this one more than the first book. The machinations of Jude and other characters in faerie is like reading a mobster novel in fantasy setting, in the best way. Cardan, do you love him, hate him, want to give him a woobie? I don't know it depends on the moment in the story. Jude is freaking awesome with her katniss everdeen energy.
