This was a fast-paced novel that left me full of questions until it all wrapped up nicely at the end. I finished definitely wanting to see more of the main characters, and had a lot of fun reading it.

I gather that this is the most Cosmerey of the secret projects? Although it was my least favorite of the four, it was still an interesting, entertaining read. An astrophysics-based sci-fi story with an almost superhero feel to it. It dragged a bit for me — I think I would've rated it higher if it had been shorter.
