A nice follow up from the first. The riddles get less interesting and the character relationships more dynamic.
This was boring, and the plot twists read like cheap TV drama twists to just shock the reader. I feel no connection to any of the characters, and the smidgen of interest I had in Grayson evaporated with that ending. Xander, the only interesting Hawthorne and rare POC was a sad footnote that Lynn Barnes even went to the trouble of pointing out to readers was left out.
The plot is uninspiring and the puzzles honestly a mess that I didn't even bother thinking about or trying to solve myself. I think I had entirely different expectations of this series and this is maybe what I get for never reading the blurb, and going into it blind and letting a book title simmer in my brain for months to conjure up its own storyline that was more along the lines of a Hunger Games style battle for the inheritance...I'm a simple person like that.
I'm hesitant to pick up the last book, but I also cannot in good book faith leave it at that knowing there's a finale. The ending of this book leaves nothing more to be desired. Who knows....I'll let it simmer some more.
