The Rogue (The Traitor Spy Trilogy #2) 
The Black Magician's trilogy was good, nothing to thrill until the High Lord, but still entertaining and nice, plus the action. I really liked The Magician's Apprentice, very interesting, especially Tessia's progress and her character, as well as the environment of an old world and the war. The Traitor Spy was interesting during the first book, but this one was a disappointment I must say. It was boring, plain, no action at all and the plot dragged a lot. The only thing that could have been a
did not enjoy this book nearly as much as I had hoped. It is not like I hated it, but I found it to be very dull. I couldn't get into Trudi Canavan's writing style at all and the way she kept jumping from character to character to character annoyed me. I never managed to know or care about them, though several seemed like they could be interesting if given the opportunity.Lilia, for example. She is a gentle, naive girl just learning about love and she is led to do a foolish, dangerous thing.

Ugh. Where to begin? It was about three years ago that I read the Black Magician's trilogy. It was quite good. When the Magician's Apprentice came out I read it with glee. It was pretty good. And then Canavan began "The Traitor Spy Trilogy". What was she thinking? The first book in the series, "The Ambassador's Mission" Takes place 20 years after those in the Black Magician Trilogy. It was an okay story, but most of it was spent attempting to recover lost history, history the reader is aware of
SpoilersThis was a chore to read, it was boring and slow paced. The characters and arcs didn't hold my interest. I didn't care about Lorkin or the Traitors, there was nothing remotely entertaining about either of them. Also, Lorkin's relationship with Tyvara was dull.The addition of Lillia was annoying. She would have been a half decent protagonist but her stupidity and naivety ruined her character. I lost count of the number of times she was manipulated, if she'd been used once or twice that
I enjoyed the first trilogy, so was looking forward to picking up this one.Its based about 20ish years after the 1st set of books.The story follows mainly 3 crossing story arcs, its a slow build up over the first 2 books to a good final book. I saved putting my review of this book until I'd finished all 3.I was disappointed in this book and the 2nd but the 3rd one I enjoyed as much as I did the original trilogy.I think the parts that grated on me the most was all the Lilly, more in the second
Better than its predecessor, Canavan gets and keep the plot rolling through the entire book. I liked the introduction of Lilia to the cast, as we haven't had a Novice in this mix yet. (Although it's actually nice that the majority of the protagonists in this trilogy are middle-aged.) The plot moved much more steadily and continues to not revolve around the magical abilities of the characters as a device to move forward.The aspect I continued to have the most trouble with, however, is connecting
