Days of Shattered Faith

4 stars

Days of Shattered Faith does feel like a proper sequel to House of Open Wounds. It brings back a bunch of interesting characters from earlier installments, but also introduces some fun fresh faces.

This time around, we're dealing with diplomatic imperialism, integration, and free will, again through a lens of magic, gods, and demons.

It's a solid story, and I'd be interested to follow some of the characters a while longer and see what they get up to.
