Sure, it took me a few pages to really get into the story (and to actually remember what happened in the first book) but the dynamic of the characters was stronger, the story overall flowed better than it did in the first book. I’m unsure because I trudged through the first book that reading this one was like coming up for fresh air, but the story was just spot on. I’m here to tell you that “The Heart Forger” blew it’s counterpart out of the water. To me, that whole first book was half “Memoirs of a Geisha” and half “Supernatural” (just without Dean Winchester).īut I’m not here to re-review “The Bone Witch”. Lots of names, lots of places, lots of things that the reader may or not understand, and the “The Bone Witch” was full of that, but that’s not why I was disappointed with it. Normally when I know a book is included in a series, I try to be gracious with the first book it’s laying the groundwork (essentially) for the rest. Why? The first book! I read “ The Bone Witch” last year (around this time actually) and was pretty disappointed with it. I’ll be blatantly honest- I was not looking forward to reading this book. While I do my best to NOT spoil a book, “The Heart Forger” isn’t due out until March of this year- please read with caution!
