More good stuff from GS Jennsen. Our heroes continue their exploration of the universes behind the Metigen portal, finding new clues as to what the puppet masters are up to. A new and larger foe is introduced, and the relationship between humanity, the Metigen and the new threat, the Anaden is revealed. Back in our universe, Prevo technology has been released to the world, bringing the politics of artificial intelligence violently to the forefront. Richard and Miriam are forced to face up to Pamela Winslow, the new President of the Earth Alliance, and her somewhat demonic son, who heads up a military-style evangelical group opposed to the artificials. The story is fast-moving and never dull, and the deeper exploration of the dangers and/or benefits of AI are welcome developments in this series.

The Aurora Rhapsody Saga is an amazing series, filled with so many elements and angles that each volume is a true delight. If you haven't read it and are interested in a space war filled with intrigue, mystery, action, romance, human/technology integration, and philosophy, start with Book 1: Starshine. I hope you enjoy it as much as I have.

This is my new favorite book in the series. Definitely.
Alex and Caleb continue to explore the Metigen portals and pocket universes, making lots of new and interesting discoveries along the way. Meanwhile, other characters in the Aurora universe are left to deal with new threats on all sides as humanity struggles to decide what should be done about the Prevos.
For the first time, I think I actually enjoyed the parts that didn't focus on Caleb, Alex, and Valkyrie more. Not that those parts weren't great too, because they definitely were, but there was just so much going on in Aurora that I couldn't seem to turn pages fast enough. I was thrilled to see Olivia wreaking havoc everywhere she went. She's always been one of my favorites so it was fantastic to see her become the incredibly formidable enemy we always knew she was but never got to see on such a large scale. She's an incredible villain and I love her for that. I think I may have said this about Sidespace as well, but I really loved all the social issues that were explored in this book related to the creation of even more Prevos and how that added to the conflict. I'm excited to see how all of that will play out in the next book.
Alex and Caleb's parts of the story were also very well done. It was interesting to watch them slowly piece together the Metigen's motives and the last few pages, where we finally get some long-awaited answers, definitely promise an intriguing continuation of the series. I also really loved some of the conflicts that were explored between Alex and Caleb. It's nice to see a couple portrayed so realistically, with realistic arguments and frustrations with each other. They still love each other, clearly, but it's always nice to see some believable conflict in fictional relationships because obviously that's how real life relationships are.
Taking all of the epicness of this story into account, I can definitely say that this is my favorite book in the series so far. Thanks again, G.S. Jennsen, for writing an awesome book. I can't wait to read more.
