I did like Black Dawn. There’s some exciting stuff going on and I really enjoyed learning more about the draug. However, there are way too many POVs. We get Claire, Shane, Eve, Michael, Hannah, Oliver, and Naomi. The latter three only get one or two chapters each, but it was a lot of head-hopping. I probably wouldn’t have minded so much if it evenly alternated, but as it was, it was just a bunch of haphazard POV switches, and some of them didn’t add too much except for filler.
Black Dawn didn’t leave me with too many thoughts. It was a good sequel, but certainly not a favorite. It was kind of messy and unfocused in places. The ending does leave us with a minor sense of dread. Morganville has seen a lot of changes over the past 12 books, but bigger things are coming, and they’re not good. At least for the humans.
