Last we left them, shit had hit the fan; to put it mildly. Now they are running out of time to try and save the galaxy from to only the clutches from a new evil ruler but possibly the even bigger threat of an AI that has perhaps more to it than they thought.
Just like last time my favorite was Eris though I loved them all, and a second favorite would probably be Ariadne.
These characters have been through Avern (hell), not surprising as they’re the Seven Devils but still, they were committed to finishing their job and bringing freedom to a galaxy that needed them more than they needed it. There’s so much raw humanity in their emotions, trauma, pain, joy and it’s all pretty visceral. I can say this is a heavy read as far as emotions go and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
4/5 Cups of coffee from me, this was a solid duology overall and if you like Becky Chambers or Valerie Valdes, I recommend this duology to you all!
