Commentary Supposing Books The Traitor and the Chalice (Lyremouth Chronicles #2)

2 stars... Probably the most boring read of 2018 for me. The first book set up everything well enough that I thought this second book will be nothing but joy to read. Instead, I was mind-numbingly bored all throughout the book. I read in anticipation for it to get good but it never did.

More than half of the book is spent in an extremely boring port city where never anything happens. The main characters barely interact with each other because one of them is undercover and when they do meet it's either to share more boring information or to drop the extremely inventive line of all time "I love you." Their dialogue is dry and unimaginative.

Then there's Tevi, a woman that's strong as 5 men put together. There should be a lot of juicy fights, right? WRONG! She barely does anything in this second book. I wanted more fights like the bandit raid in the first book. Some excitement but, nope, nothing. The Checkov's gun was barely unholstered and then put back without nothing interesting ever happening. All Tevi does is get offended when Jemeryl says something wrong which then is resolved 5 seconds later when Jem explains herself. Their relationship just doesn't work, there is no spark, no chemistry there.

The murder mystery was boring. It takes too long to resolve and the main villain is also boring. The chase after the villain was disjointed, repetitive and boring. The mage fights were too esoteric and hard to understand and therefore boring.

The small-time skips are also weird and make the book harder to read. Same as the sudden POV changes without warning. And that word for word copy/pasted conversation from the first book in the middle of this book also seemed way out of place.

And what's up with the anti-climatic ending? I wanted for her to return and show her family who's the boss. Instead, she hides in a corner like she always did. Hero's journey? What hero's journey...

This book is just so... boring. Filled with lots of unfulfilled promise, unfortunately. Some reviewers mention that the first book is the weakest of the series. I disagree, I actually liked the first book far better than this trainwreck.

Assessment Appertaining To Books The Traitor and the Chalice (Lyremouth Chronicles #2)

I am a fantasy buff and enjoy all kinds. I was looking forward to Book 2 in this series with Tevi And jemalya and while I liked it, it seemed a bit disjointed. It felt like the author wanted to get someplace and skipped over parts to get to it. I enjoyed her takes on immortality and gifted vs. ungifted life as philosophy. I wanted more interaction between the main characters and I wanted to see how they developed. I guess I wanted more emotion but never really felt that. The return home felt

Excellent characters and story. If you like Fantasy/SciFi and are queer you should really enjoy this series.

This is a 2.5 stars rounded up to three. This book is mostly confusing. You switch from one scene to another so quickly you get lost.You go from one great part to a pretty boring one and it goes on in a cycle. The last part was the worse, with old sorcerer, hermaphrodite's dwarves and mad hermit. I was dubious about the fact that sorcerer and non-magic user relationship are frown about by both sides... Seing the ratio sorcerer-main population, how are they supposed to have a life ? Especially

It was good book from this series. The adventure and the drama was very captivating, as well as the action. The romance is not what I was expecting, there were kinky moments, but nothing beyond that. Still, it was an interesting book and it was worth reading. Hope to read more from her.

While this book (book 2) has more excitement than the The Exile and the Sorcerer, I found myself liking book 1 more. That's not to say this book wasn't good, in fact it's great. I really seem to love Jane Fletcher's writing. Her Celaeno series was fantastic. I believe I gave all except one book, in that series, 5 stars. I've been totally sucked into this series too, and can't wait to read the rest.I'm not going to go into a review about the characters and setting, as others have already. I just

The follow up to Fletcher's Exile and the Sorcerer continues the high quality of character that made the first book stand out. Again, the plotting is a bit subdued, the first half easily bettering the second. The first plays a bit like a Harry Potter novel, with a mystery set in a sorcerer's school. The second half is the two leads chasing down the Traitor of the title. While I did like this one about as much as the first, my only caveat would be Fletcher's somewhat anti-climactic plot
