Quite liked the development of both plot and characters in this 2nd book. The diverse range of characters and differing personalities was great to the story.
Also, I did not like Cole from the start ... and I still don't like him. As for the Queen, she can die. 🤺
I adored seeing the beginning of Rekosh and Ahmya. I look forward to reading their book and also of the other couples.

Give it a chance if you like sci-fi, romance, fights, suspense, good world-building, humor.
I did laugh out loud a few times.
I love the dialogues ; they just feel very realistic to me.
100% recommend :)
Here are some of my favorite quotes :
He'd been somewhat eased by having Ivy safe in his arms, but even she could not banish the trouble in his hearts - because she was in danger. The threat to his life mattered only in that it was an equal threat to hers.
"I don't even know if they'll listen to me."
"Why would they not listen ?"
"Because I'm ... no one. [...] I don't have any special skills, don't have any special knowledge, don't --"
"You have survived the Tangle for many eightdays, my heartsthread. You have taken lessons on hunting, trapping, tracking. You know more about the jungle than any of them."
"Because I have you."
"And you will always have me. But you are enough."
"Even I had known what would come, I would change nothing. I would choose to wake you. I would choose to take you as mine. That you are small, soft, and human does not matter."
Ketahn brushed his rough knuckles across her cheek.
"Our heartsthreads, our spirits, are all that matter, and they are bound. Fate brought me to you, my heartsthread, and even if it tried to turn me away, I would defy it. Nothing will come between us. So long as the sun, moons, and stars make their treks across the sky, you will be mine, Ivy.
Ketahn couldn't help chittering when she came to him during one of those stops and said, "You do realize I have no idea which way to go either, don't you ? I'd get us lost."
"How could that be ?" He lifted a hand, brushing his knuckles gently down her cheek. "So long as I am with you, my heartsthread, I can never be lost."
I'm sorry, but Ketahn is the ultimate book boyfriend. No one can surpass him. No one.

Ketahn is sexually assaulted by the queen. Ivy is assaulted by a human man (but she stops him after he forces the kiss.)smolone13's review against another edition

After reading this one I immediately jumped into reading the third book. I couldn't contain myself. This entire series for me was a 5/5 and I would love to get the collection at some point.
