Tchaikovsky writes fast and he writes well. Eyes of the Void is a second entry in The Final Architecture trilogy. We meet the Vulture God Crew again, and unsurprisingly they are in the middle of the trouble affecting the whole of known universe. There’s plenty worldbuilding, lots of action and a reasonable amount of intrigue to keep one turning pages. I think Kris deserves more page space as her plotline and story is quite an intriguing and deep one. Maybe it could be good to see some Hive viewpoint also?
Part3. I am looking forward to it. But please publish children of time vol 3 first!

Once the plot started in this book it just didn't stop. I have the feeling that this will be a series that I will re-read.

This second book in the Final Architecture series finds Idris helping the Parthenon to develop their own Intermediary program, while the Architects appear without warning to remake inhabited planets according to the aesthetic principles demanded by their unknown masters. The intricate, masterful world-building, vivid characters, and ratcheting tension made this an engaging and, as the end approached, riveting read.
