![The Shadow Saint (The Black Iron Legacy, #2)](https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1554889265l/40541565._SX98_.jpg)
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This second book in the Black Iron Legacy was, IMHO, a better book. More interesting.
I'm sure some mileage will vary, but I was a lot more fascinated by the reconstruction following the war, the politics, the spy-stuff, and the total aftermath of all the god-stuff suffusing the world than I was for the previous book's build-up and explosion.
Overall, I think the entire novel was very entertaining.
What would I compare it to? The Powder Mage trilogy. There are a ton of similarities. I'm sure most fans of Epic Fantasy who LOVE the big magic throughout the worldbuilding will be tickled as hell by this.
Just be forewarned, this Epic Fantasy stems from a grimdark root, has everything from guns to god bombs, and let's not forget the city itself. It has personality. And anger issues. Fun stuff!
