This is Book 2 of the Bright Empires Series.
The Skin Map, like most first books in a series, was heavier on set-up and character development and shorter on action. With The Bone House, Lawhead wastes no time in getting things moving.
By now, the reader has a good sense of what ley travel looks like and the characters are quickly getting the hang of it as well. Not only is the plot non-linear because of all of the inter-dimensional travel, but Lawhead continues to add character back story and important -plot points in a non-linear fashion as well.
In short, the entire book sends you ping-ponging through time and you begin to see the ever-increasing scope of what the quest looks like, both to its enemies and its allies. I always enjoy Lawheads ability to explore the deeper questions of life as he explores moral, philosophical, and religious conversations , and to do so in a way that illuminates a Christian worldview without requiring a spotlight.
I am enjoying this series immensely. Im ready for the next book.
