“Why would I pray to the Gods when she’s right here.”

This was kind of underwhelming. It's not BAD bad. I actually think it's a nice conclusion to the Gearbreakers duology but something was lacking. I feel like the fight scenes here were mid which disappointed me because I really liked Gearbreakers.

What I did love about this book is Eris and Sona's love story and soulmatism. I loved their angst and pining. I love the side characters, especially Eris' crew, and Jenny and her crew. I love their dynamic and how they're always there for each other even through crazy ideas and decisions. Their domestic scenes where they're all sleeping in one room tangled up with each other really tugs the heartstrings and it's a nice balance to all the shit that's happening outside.

This was an amazing finish to an incredible duology. Zoe, you have created a brilliant cast of characters in a universe that I will always love. I have laughed and cried and screamed along side these characters. If you love sci-fi and mechas, you’ll love the Gearbreakers books.🤖🖤

Thank you to Netgalley and Fiercereads for the arc of this book.

After the victory--and devastating loss--at the end of Gearbreakers, Sona has been corrupted into thinking she hates the Gearbreakers, and Eris is stuck in Godolia prison. But Sona's corruption doesn't stick the way Enyo is hoping it will, and Jenny and Eris have big plans.


This book!!! Was heartbreaking, first of all. Like, how dare you do that to my precious babies?!  But also it is so good! And honestly the perfect ending to this duology and I couldn't ask for a better conclusion within the realm of believability for this world. 

The continued world-building and character development in this book was so good I love Sona and Eris so much and I feel like they changed so much in this book but I still love them. A little older, a little less feral, but still determined and fierce and loving and hopeful, always hopeful.

The hope and change and resilience of the characters in this book is so important. It is so good. I think it's the core of what this book is about. I love it so much. I will always recommend this duology to everyone.

Go read it now!
