Witty and a little sarcastic, and very fun!
Very character-driven, but the plot picks up in the second half to an edge-of-your-seat complexity I did not expect going in to this!
As someone who hasn't ever read any "superhero" type fiction, this was a great first foray into the genre.
As someone who always roots for the underdog, I really liked how this book managed to subvert the expectations of "villian vs hero".

.....for complete and utter devastation after reading Morning Star. 😅
It's taken me over a year and a half since finishing MS for me to even contemplate continuing this journey. I think I'm prepared, but I don't think I am ACTUALLY prepared for this if anything happens like what did previously. 😬😢

This was my second time reading this and it was just as fun the second time around.
I would definitely consider this entry-level science fiction, and recommend to anyone who wants a more character-driven storyline while they are starting out with the genre.
It is also a nice change of pace for seasoned readers who want a break from the heavy hitters within the genre.
I have the tiniest, most insignificant critique on this though... "Perseverating" is a great word, however, it really didn't need to get used three times in a >300 page book. 😅

I had placed this on hold last year!
This year, my grandmother passed, and this book came in the week before her memorial.
I think the universe knew I needed this at this precise moment. I don't think I'd have had the same lens reading this as I do right now.
Going to be thinking about this one for a long time.
