Not really satisfying. The optimistic tone doesn't, in my opinion, serve the themes well, and it used an almost juvenile humor way too often for my liking. The sequels were written in a pretty video game-like way, with weak and repetitive battle plots serving to take the reader's viewpoint around a well-built out fantasy setting. Pretty anticlimactic, and the cliffhanger set up is much weaker than the one at the end of the first book.
