Book Review: Shadow's Edge

So much for my semi-prediction, almost six years ago, that I wouldn't wait long to start reading the sequel to Brent Weeks' The Way of Shadows. Perhaps the darkness made me reluctant after all, tho I waited less than two years for the sequel to An Ember in the Ashes. I bet length had something to do with it: Both TWoS and SE exceed 600 pages. At any rate, I remembered enough not to feel lost for long.

( Cut for length )

I have now started Blake Crouch's Recursion, both because it's shorter and swifter and because my parents want to read it after me. While it has commonalities with Upgrade, it's shaping up to be weirder.
