This is a somewhat unsatisfying second installment. Of course, I hated the incubus, and of course, too many pages are spent on him and on our protagonist's feelings about him, when I really only continued reading the series for the supernatural politics and for the friendships between the protagonist and the town's residents. If you're into the incubus, you'll likely feel differently.

The book's main value, for me, was in setting the stage for a better third book
