should've been an easy 4 stars

what the hell was that ending

so at no point did I feel lost or confused just because I'm more familiar with the MCU than Marvel comics . . . until the end. and now I'm wondering if there's something I'm missing, some particular arc this is meant to tie into, because who ends a book like that? not without a sequel in the works, and the next book in this series is about Bucky. I want/wanted to read that and the Loki book but I'm really hesitant if they're all gonna be like this. pls advise.

I loved Nebula in this, but she got very little pov chapters compared to Gamora. This book is a very good prequel to the MCU.
