<blockquote><b><i>“But then, this was what the desert did to us. It made us dreamers with weapons.” </i></b></blockquote> This book definitely doesn't suffer from the 'middle book syndrom' it seems to happen to second books in trilogies. If anything, this was even better than the first one, which was already amazing. The entire book is fast paced, but well developed and the plot only gets more interesting, there are a lot of surprising twists and turns, unthinkable betrayals and surprising alliances. We get some returning characters with surprising story arcs and new, interesting characters who really adds to the story instead of just being there. Amani is a storm of a girl - she's smart, ferocious, badass,kind and passionate (although she is ruled by her heart a lot and that gets her into a lot of trouble). She's grown a lot since the idealistic girl who left Dustwalk. I like how she embraced her power but doesn't give up on the abilities she had before, and how she fits into the revolution perfectly - she's a natural leader as well. I love her relationship with Jin (I love Jin a lot, too bad he's not that present in this book and I'm hoping he gets an interesting storyline in the final one), they compliment each other well, have amazing chemistry and their romance is natural and fluid. And the romantic aspect of the novel is softly developed in the background and doesn't dominate the book. Shazad is my favorite character, maybe, and she's even more amazing in this book. I love her friendship and sisterhood with Amani and how she's always watching her back. I'm curious to see more of her dynamic with Sam (which was an amazing new character with an interesting background and set of abilities), especially because of what happened in the first book. The Sultan was also a very interesting and compelling character - he's a manipulative bastard, but he truly believes he is doing what is best for Miraji. The ending was truly devastating and the author doesn't have a problem with killing beloved characters or doing hurtful stuff - the tension builds until it explodes and we're left with this heartwrentching and almost hopeless situation that will only have it's resolution in the final installment. So, obviously, I can't wait for the next book! A full 5 stars rating to this engaging and well thought fantasy!
