I’m adding this to my list of sequels that did not go where I expected. I thought this was going to be a duology and it very much was not. Sometimes it read like a socialism 101 diatribe. And then the world building got MASSIVELY out of hand. Was I glued to my seat? Yea. Did I have a good time? Ummm
