A Chain Across the Dawn by Drew Williams
5.0
“To continue the metaphor, I believe, if I was human, you might describe me as ‘high as a motherfuckering kite.’ I feel great.” - Scheherazade, The Stars All Unclaimed
Set 3 years after the events in All the Stars Unclaimed, ACCATD is a fantastic continuation in Williams' The Universe After series.
I read it over the course of a day, and was constantly thinking about where in the cosmos the story was going to take us next. I definitely preferred the story being told from Esa's point if view this time around, as opposed to Jane's in the first book - this was especially fun because we got to see Esa working on her powers from an inside perspective. The addition of several new characters was welcome, and the return of some familiar faces had me grinning like a loon. I thought that the Big Bad was creeeeepy, nothing quite so horrifying than a zealot who doesn't give af. My favourite character, again, was Schaz, I mean, who doesn't love a sentient AI.
With space pirates, mental space fights, more guns than you know what to do with, extremely hair raising situations, mortal danger, a really smart kid who is also a Wulf, telekinesis, huge explosions and big ass plot reveals - you're in for a great time. Check it out - 5☆.
Thank you to @darkroomtours for arranging this tour and to @simonschusteruk for sending me copies of both books one exchange for an honest review.
