I LOVED Havemercy, but was pretty disappointed with Shadow Magic. I tend to dislike it when you completely change the protagonists in your sequel and barely even mention them (Royston got a cameo, but he was never a POV character so I don't think that counts.

The authors tend to have about 3/4 of the book be set-up and character development, which I didn't mind as much in Havemercy because I just loved the characters and their dynamics, but it was hard to get through Shadow Magic. I was not as impressed with these characters- I liked caius in the first book but he seemed unnecessarily over the top in this one and I guess everything just all seemed a lot more cliche.

"I feel performance cannot be done in isolation. So when I talk about teamwork, when I talk about timing between two actors, timing between two actors, I think about Laurel & Hardy. It’s like two sides of a coin. It’s the quickest examples of two people creating magic, two actors creating magic. I look up to these people [and] I get influenced by [them], because I try to create these things. I see others trying to create that thing, but nobody has succeeded yet. Laurel & Hardy [are] completely timeless. And anything in art which is timeless — it might be architecture, it might be paintings, whatever you do — [if] it’s great art, it will entertain the people all over the world for centuries and centuries."
