THE VIBE

Political intrigue.
Impossible choices.
Rebellion.
Space warfare.
Moral gray characters.
The constant feeling that everything is about to go terribly wrong.

A collage featuring various artistic representations, including a lion, a space scene with a large ship, a figure with short hair, a Martian landscape, and hands covered in dirt or paint.

WHAT I’M LOVING

✓ The world-building

✓ The strategy and politics

✓ Characters who feel human

✓ High stakes that actually feel high

✓ Darrow making my blood pressure rise daily

MY THOUGHTS SO FAR

I expected a dystopian sci-fi.

What I got was a story about power, sacrifice, loyalty, and the cost of changing a broken system.

The deeper I get into this series, the more devastating it becomes.
