My Review of Temple of No God

5 izar

I was surprised at how much I enjoyed Hall of Smoke, so I came into Temple of No God with high hopes. Where Hall of Smoke suffered from a slow start before roaring to the finish, Temple of No God was paced evenly throughout, making for a great sequel. Hessa‘s character development across the two books has been a delight to take in, going from being an outcast priestess of a false god to a revered high priestess and leader of her people. Hessa is much more powerful than in the first book, but is still vulnerable and relatable in many ways. In Temple of No God, Hessa still finds herself in difficult situations, but is better equipped to work her way out of them.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was everything Hall of Smoke was and much more, making for a worthy sequel and ending of the duology.
