Nach dem ersten Teil war ich so gespannt wie es weiter gehen wird und auch der zweite Band hat nicht enttäuscht.
Es hat einen Moment gedauert bis ich wieder in der Geschichte drin war, aber dabei hat auch die Charakterzusammenfassung am Anfang geholfen.
Eines der besten Dinge in Büchern,oder Geschichten generell, ist die Charakterentwicklung und davon findet man in The Atlas Paradox unmengen. Auch wenn die Charaktere alle Dreck am Stecken haben, fühlt man trotzdem mit ihnen und hofft, dass ihr volles Potential erreichen können.
Die Übersetzung ist gut gelungen und war flüssig zu lesen, auch wenn sich in dieser Ausgabe noch ein paar Tippfehler eingeschlichen haben. Das wird aber vor Veröffentlichung noch behoben.
Ich bin sehr gespannt auf den dritten und letzten(?) Teil!

I will say, though, some quotes in there were really smart and beautiful, shame they had to be mixed up in what was mostly an inefficient and quite boring story.
Olivie Blake is obviously a smart and talented writer, I just wished this book had clearer purpose. It is also quite niche so maybe it wasn’t for me but yeah, I wasn’t a fan.
Ps: Shoutout to Belen for being the best character ever.

During the first one I was so obsessed with Nico and Libby's cosmic dance of soulmatism (and I still am, after all I picked The Atlas Six up expecting a whole academic rivals to lovers slow burn) that I obviously put the other characters in the background. The Atlas Paradox helped remedy that, and honestly, I loved it. I loved exploring Parisa, Reina, Tristan and Callum more deeply, their motives and the independant research, and even others like Dalton, Atlas and Ezra (although fuck him).
Honestly I can't wait for the third one to see how every plot point (and there are a lot, Olivie Blake tends to go on tangents) is resolved
