Shadows of the Apt

Little bit into "Dragonfly Falling" by the impressively named Adrian Tchaikovsky, second book in the trilogy and depending on who you listen to either a bad attempt at a middle book, or a significant improvement over book one and perfectly done for a mid series book.

Seems fine so far, with these large fantasy novels you generally get some slack at the start of latter books, not so much here though, a number of the threads are action packed and moving far quicker that I'd have ever hoped for, the other threads are moving quite nicely too. Just what I need right now as I appear to have got fucking "Swine Flu" and am very woolly headed at times and this book is doing all the work for me.
