Somehow more of the same but also less substance than book 1
The second book in the Darkslayer series again follows Venir, Melegal and others as they journey across the world of Bish. This book feels very much like a variation on the first one. Pretty much nobody died in that book, it turns out, as all enemies return for another go at taking down the Darkslayer. The royals are after him and the underlings are after him, in much the same way as the previous story. There is a lot less action here, with much fewer gratuitous skirmishes. There is, I think, meant to be more build up of what will become the overall plot of the series. There were a few smaller story aspects that added nothing at all (as far as I can see) - including most of Mood's side stories.
Reasonably entertaining but with very little by way of a plot (rather just characters on the run and reacting to events) it fell a little flat for me.
