Title: Adequate, but just barely
Review: I picked this up expecting an exciting sequel to Feist's page-turning Shadow of A Dark Queen but was disappointed to discover little more than a flimsy pseudo-sequel that reads more like a business text than a fantasy novel. Most of us fantasy readers have little interest in syndicates, trading enterprises, etc., even if they do involve the beloved Roo Avery. Roo is revealed as a rather unappealing and shallow character; Erik's presence in the story is tantalizing, as he appears but is scarcely granted any character development. This addition to the series doesn't add much, nor does it satisfy any of the curiosities left behind at the end of the first novel. Still, it's not as bad as it could be.
