I liked Atticus more this book than the last. I think it might be because he admits early on that he's not behaving logically and he knows it may end badly, he has just decided it's no longer enough to hide. Plus he's given his word to Leif and Hal, and keeping his promise is a huge part of his identity. As usual, lots of action and gory bits. I liked the little "traveler's tale" vignettes but I really wanted to know how they met. Atticus says at the end that the revenge wasn't worth the cost, but it wasn't his revenge to begin with. And just to be picky, in his last conversation with the widow she says she knows she's going to die soon, but he tells Granuille to leave Oberon with the widow. Pfui.
