[3+] This second installment does well picking up where the first left off and expanding upon it. We got to know a few characters better, as we met some new players. There were some sections of extreme violence. There's one character that pops up at the end that I didn't remember from earlier in the story—I'm not sure if that's my failure or the author's. (Was I not paying attention? Was the author cramming too much in? It really doesn't matter, I suppose.) I'm still in for at least one more installment.
