it was ok

Loved the first book in this series, but I've found them progressively less enjoyable. I would love to see the story develop with the characters and settings from the first book; instead, each book is a stand-alone story taking place in the same world, but in vastly different places. Having to learn a completely new mythology and try to figure out how it relates to what has already been shown is a lot of work with little pay-off, in my mind.

The last twenty pages or so are the story I wanted to see played out over a few hundred pages; the rest was set-up that was very involved, low interest, with not much pay-off.
