Not as good as Amber and Ashes (Vol 1), but the ending makes you want more.

Segundas partes nunca fueron buenas, pero en este caso es excelente. Apoteósico final

Can't wait for the next!

Couldn't put it down and had me dying for the last part to come out.

As for the first book in the series, I find this one a bit below the typical Margaret Weis book. However, there was a definite improvement with respect to the previous one. The plot starts to become more consistent and interesting, and it tends to something clearer than the rather confusing Amber and Ashes.

The final revelation comes as a revelation only partially. It was somehow clear that there was something special about Mina, but actually the real nature of her peculiarities was quite unexpected.

What I found weak in this book are two issues. One is the main character. Rhys is quite dull, and easily succumbs to the will of just about anybody who orders him around, in a very passive way. He somehow reminds me of Shadow from American Gods, accepting without so much as a complaint everything that any god asks of him.

The other weakness is in the gods, who are too humanized in my opinion.They bicker and grumble and annoy each other much as nasty humans, and even their powers don't even appear that godlike.

All in all, a decent book, although Margaret can (and usually does) create much better works.

There are also serious issues with the editing. Plenty of typos and spelling mistakes, showing that the proofreading was very poor. This is an issue that I have often encountered with TSR / WotC books.

It would have been nice to reread my review for the first installment in the Dark Disciple series, but I think I said something about enjoying my return to Krynn as it has been a number of years since last I was there (or something like that).
What I can say about the second installment is that it is tremendously better than the first one and I actually liked the first one. I found the story being told at a good pace. Ms. Weis did a fine job building up to the key discoveries in this novel. The end was just amazing.
I look forward to reading the final installment!

Reviewed as the whole Dark Disciple Trilogy.

Mina has taken herself to the next level of godly complications, which is never good because all it does is create trouble for the world. I don't want to spoil anything. It is a truly wonderful second to the first of this trilogy. I rather wish I had the third one on hand to finish it off, to find out what happens after the end of Amber & Iron. There is no dawdling in the plot, so don't worry about it dragging on, just worry about the Beloved of Chemosh along with the god himself. We'll discover a lot about Mina in this instalment, some of which even terrifies her. I highly recommend picking up the second if you loved the first.

The second part of Mina's story. I'm a huge Dragonlance fan but unfortunately I have to tell his is not the best book by far. The gods are present way too much and they are too petty. Although the cliffhanger at the end of the book is not bad.

This book was phenomenal! Where as the first book didn't delve too deeply into Mina herself, this book finally answered all my questions! About half way through the book I just knew what Mina was, so when they finally came out with it I went, I knew it!! Can't wait to read the next. I was happy to see that Majere made quite the appearance in this book too.

Much better than the first.
Still not good enough to be a dragonlance novel

Rhys, yeah. Kinda wish he weren't a monk.
