Fully enjoyable and a great read. My favorite parts of this book were as our protagonist tries to navigate the magical world, he learns new things about the dynamics of it and grows because of that. His friends and cat are a great addition to the story, and made me smile.

However, I did like book 1 in the series better. This novel just feels like it's missing the propulsive stakes of the first book.

Thanks to Netgalley and Ace for a copy of this book. All opinions are my own.
