Summary: Good, but could be better
Comment: In many ways, this book is better than the first; however, there are so many editing errors in this book that it is annoying to read. For example, using the word to instead of too, or now instead of know. I can only guess that they rushed to publish this book without having a technical writer review the book. A spellcheck program doesn't help with the errors this book contains.

Summary: Even better than the first book!
Comment: The Power That Binds continues the story of Julia Morton's arrival in Deva. A year has passed since the events chronicled in The God Decrees, and Julia has settled into her new life with Keverin, but Lord Mortain is now ready to continue his campaign to conquer Deva.
When King Pergann is assassinated by a traitor, Julia and Keverin are summoned to a conclave of Lords to discuss the situation and raise a new king who might then defeat Mortain's ambitions, but upon entering the capital they find traitors and intrigue at almost every turn. With enemies surrounding her, Julia is forced once again to use her magic not to heal, but to kill.
The book shows a much deeper and richer view of Deva and its people. The first book concentrated on Julia and her decisions, this one shows us the consequences of those decisions and how they will likely effect not only her future, but the future of the entire world. The various kingdoms and empires are busy realigning themselves to either ally or oppose Julia and are blind to the threat that the Tamorshin empire poses.
I'm looking forward to the next book called The Warrrior Within. I'm hoping there might be more on the old ones mentioned in the first book and hinted at in the second.
