Eona: Poslední dračí oko

3.5 rounded down to 3

This was one of those rare books where the sequel is better than the original. Don't get me wrong I loved the first book, Eon, it had such a diverse world of characters and a refreshing originality, but Eona took it to the next level. After reading a highly predictable (yet still fun) first book, I was happy to see Eona pull a few over on me. The storyline was quicker to develop as well and made me want to speed read to find out what happened next. I feared that love would dominate the second book when Goodman hinted at a love triangle, but it blissfully stayed in the background. I do wish I knew what happened to a few characters we are reunited with in the last quarter of the book, but I understand they weren't vital to this story. I also wish there could have been more storyline with her mother, or else leave her out of it entirely. She seemed to be an edit away from being taken out of the writing with how little time she was mentioned. All together I enjoyed the read and wish I could read more from Goodman along the same genre as Eon and Eona.

I really enjoyed this one. I can't remember enough about the first book to say whether I liked it better or not. I felt a little embarrassed by some of the scenes, but that's probably just my personality.
