After the Wizard oft Earthsea, this second book felt a bit slow. Since it is confined to one particular place in Earthsea, that might have added to the feeling. It is still a good book and I liked reading it, if only for the change of perspective.
It's the kind of story I'd like to follow a bit further. Also, I'd love some more exploration of how the reality and the worship are connected. But I was happy as it was.
