Loved listening to the audiobook version of this. 
Much the same feelings as I had with Blackout/All Clear. Connie Willis is a long winded writer and this could have easily been shortened up a bit, but it was still so enjoyable to listen to. 
I really liked the parallel storylines of plague in 1348 vs. epidemic in 2050s. Especially appreciated the 'present day' portions after experiencing a pandemic. 
I love this time travel series, and appreciate that there is less emphasis on the science of time travel and the minutiae of how it all works. The human focus is what makes this series such a pleasure to read. 

Listening to the audio book. I think I’ll switch to the text version 

Unfortunately, this entry in the series was quite mid, especially when accounting for how much I enjoyed the first book. 
I think it was just too long, the first section, 'Legacy' was the strongest of the three, with the middle one, 'Order' being the weakest. With some major cuts and edits I think it could have been more enjoyable, but for me it just seemed to drag on. 
Nonetheless I am liking the series overall and looking forward to the final installment. 

Wow!! This was a flop! The first book was really something special but this one felt …. like a rehash but with different characters. By 2/3 of the way through I stopped caring about any of them and just tried to finish. Disappointing! Read the og and skip this one 

Really enjoyed the mystery element of this one! Some of the more political sections got a tad boring but overall well developed and leaves just enough hanging to keep you waiting for the next one without being too frustrating
