Great Sequel
Story thoughts: This was a great sequel! I enjoyed that this was more plot-heavy, featuring paper making, connections with merchants, and interesting character development. I really like how the author consistently has strong characterization and makes even mundane interactions between the different characters amusing and entertaining. 4 stars.
Japanese thoughts: The paper making part at the beginning is a bit confusing, so I'd recommend googling Japanese paper making and watching a video to learn about it in your native language. Other than that, there are a few economics/contract-related parts that I had to reread to fully understand.
