Two threads to follow: Micah goes off in search of allies for Eden, while Blake has to navigate the treacherous machinations of Eden's political arena. A lot of new information is divulged, adding to the intrigue. The author skillfully weaves an intricate plot through both story arcs, which kept me interested and engaged, and left me wanting more. The narrative, characters and galaxy building are developing nicely, and the intrigue is certainly increasing. The pacing of the book is adequate, and there are very few lulls.

Overall a great second instalment, I'm definitely hooked and invested in the story now, it's been a while since I've been this infused by a sci-fi book.
