Thanks to Netgalley and Curiosity Quills Press for giving me this book to review.

Season of Wind is the second book in the Clockwork Gods Chronicles and I really enjoyed it. It was very fast paced, and full of action and deception. While I guessed the main plot twist it was still a fun light book and I enjoyed reading about all of the characters.

Janet is determined to protect her friends and save Silvia but also feels way over her head as she gets more involved in the Gods war. I wish Itazura was in this book more as he was my favourite character from the first book and the story seemed to be lacking something with him not in it. However, the other gods made up for it was I really liked the bander and family feeling between Laetatia, Meroquio, and Kova.

This is a very fun story and I am looking forward to reading the next book in The Clockwork Gods Chronicles. I would recommend Season of Wind to fans of the first book Hour of Mischief.

So, the first book came out almost two whole years ago. And since then I had forgotten some of the minor details of what happened. It took a bit while reading this to recall what had happened. But the book does a good job of recapping, without info-dumping.

This is a really interesting and unique series. I development of the Gods and the society is very well done. It's developed in a way that makes it feel real.

I also really like all the characters. There is a fair amount of characters, but none of them feel unnecessary or similar to any other character. They are all unique from each other.

The Gods, while based in a different religion than other books that feature them, are clearly based on existing Gods in mythology. In way of their powers and what they stand for. Which is fine, every old religion has a god for War, Merriment, Love, Mischief, etc.

I would have liked to have more of a payoff with Janet saving her friend Sylvia, the trajectory of the plot still had a really satisfying payoff in a different way. I can't wait to read the next book.
