Laura (crofteereader)'s Reviews > Black Tide Son

I really liked the first book, but quite honestly this one was boring. There wasn’t much development of characters or deepening of relationships, we didn’t get answers to the lore/worldbuilding questions I collected during the first book, Mary suffered from a complete lack of agency, we didn’t have any awesome action sequences, there wasn’t much tension or suspense of any kind…

Even Moira Quirk’s narration couldn’t hold my attention (and not just because the male narrator had significantly more chapters).

I’m still interested in Long’s Norse mythology inspired backlist, but I probably won’t return to this series.
