In continuation of the previous volume we continue to follow Brienne, Jaime, Cersei, Samwel, girls Stark. No jon, no new wall, no new Tyrion and Daenerys or dragons. We continue to follow and the end of the civil war but also the fragility of the peace. The rise of the church and the errors of judgment of Cersei let meanwhile imagine the worst.
However my favorite characters are not there and this part of the story, while interesting is far from the quality of the first volumes.
