"Some must die
So others can live."
I've never even thought of picking up this duology until a friend dropped it onto my hands. And I must say, I do not regret flipping through these pages.
The sequel to Proxy where Syd once brought down the networks with his friend Knox, thinks he might've done the wrong thing. The world is divided into two. The proxies who now join the Reconciliation, and the patrons who hide and call themselves the Machinists. In a world where everyone's blood is programmed, what will become of those who are far into the system? In Guardian, we follow the story of Syd as Yovel, or the Jubilee, and his bodyguard Liam. The Reconciliation is the new future. But when a disease arises and people go down one by one, will this new future be what they hoped for?
Honestly thought it was a bit slow at first but I came to like it after a while. Liam will never replace Knox, sadly, but he's an even sweeter gentleman. The death count is pretty high in this book which startled me. Although I didn't connect with the characters that much that their death didn't even bothered me. All in all, it was a good read.
"It's your future. Choose."
So others can live."
