I went with Intrigues by Mercedes Lackey the second in the Valdemar: Collegium Chronicles Series.

I thought this one was much slower than the first book. It seems most of the story was just day-to-day stuff and not leading anywhere. Then about three quarters in, it gets interesting and finally very exciting. Also, the ending has no mild cliff hanger like the first one. A few things aren't realistic some of them glaringly so. It made the storyline easier to write. Rated C- [3 stars].

I'll continue on to the third installment hoping it gets better.
