The stakes of this series never cease to rise. The antagonist of this story should have been a harsh retread of covered group for Corey, you still love to hate him. Loved the focus on the biology of the new planets and its effects on humans entering a whole new biosphere. Loved how much Naomi we get in this one. Can’t wait for the next one.

Another strong book in the series, this one didn’t quite have the same level of tension and uncertainty of the previous one or the political intrigue of the second. Nevertheless, it leaves me eager to see where the overarching narrative goes from here.
