Publisher's summary

There's a new card in the Mercenary Deck - one Lynx isn't sure if he's happy to see or not. The assassin Toil now wears the Princess of Blood on her jacket, and even Lynx would admit she's a woman cloaked in chaos and bloodshed. Their new mission is to escort a dignitary to the pious and ancient city of Jarrazir - beneath which lies a fabled labyrinth.

Having barely survived their last underground adventure the mercenaries aren't keen for another, but Toil has other plans. Under threat of siege and horrors rising from the labyrinth, even the Mercenary Deck may have to accept that Jarrazir's prohibition laws aren't their biggest problem.

Improved Story

The narrator still reads over preforms.

The humour is not as sharp, but the improved story is far more captivating. I also appreciated the brief summary of the previous stories at the beginning.

Excellent

More world building. Solid plot. Left me wanting more. Encountered a couple problems with playback but the reader was fine.

Excellent Sequel

Princess of Blood, the 2nd book in The God Fragments series by Tom Lloyd was an excellent sequel to the first book. No second book slump. In fact, I liked it even more than the first book in the series.

I really like the main character Lynx. He is an unlikely hero. He is overweight, he is always hungry, he suffers from PTSD, but he has heart and honor. Princess of Blood has a definite D&D feel, with a large portion of the books dedicated to exploring underground ruins.

Tom Lloyd again starts the story switching back and forth between present-day events and flashbacks, gradually combining the storylines into Chronological order. This forces the reader to pay attention but it ends in giving even greater depth to the story and the characters. Lloyd adds details to every character he introduces, even if they only play a brief role in the story. Just as in the first book, Lloyd introduces a lot of supporting characters and it can be a challenge keeping track of all the names.

The world-building in this book continues and is excellent. I thought this book was a solid 4 stars. The book was narrated by Jay Villiers and I thought he was outstanding. I am on to the third book in the series.
