Middle books of trilogies have somewhat picked up a reputation for being the textual equivalent of filler episodes, which I find unfair because some of my favorite books are trilogy middles.

But middle books that are done well feel like such careful expansions, playing off of book one while also keeping a steady direction for book three.
