Witch of Wealth and Ruin by Levi Jacobs

4.0

Witch of Wealth and Ruin is the second book in this series by Levi Jacobs.

I found it to be both better and worse than the first.

So the characters definitely are more fleshed out and the gained depth helped to make them feel a lot more realistic.
We also get to see a new part of the world, and yet another kind of magic, which I really enjoyed!
However this felt a lot like a side quest, and while we gain new allies (and new foes) who will be important later in, it feels like the main plot has basically stalled for most of the book.

There's plenty of action and fast paced fight scenes, as well as some deeper insights into being forced to fight in an arena, which made for quick reading!

So despite being a bit disappointed by the lack of overall progression, I was well entertained all the way through, and finished this in just a couple of sittings.

If you like a good coming of age fantasy, with a female main character who's flawed and yet willing to fight, no matter what? This is a great choice.
