Sakkara | Paperback (b format)

The middle book in a trilogy is always hard, being that the book, by it's very position in the series, will have no real beginning and have no real end. BUt at the same time it needs to be self contained enough for the casual reader to pick it up and enjoy.
And in this respect, Carroll performs brilliantly. The plot set up in the first book unfolds and expands superbly throughout this volume.
Remember THAT twist at the end of The Empire Strikes Back? The one that made you scream 'NNoooooooooo!' right along with Luke? Well, brace yourself for emotional punches as impactful and exciting (though not the same!)as that.
You'll be running to buy the third book when you finish this one- I promise!
