The second book in the Illuminae series seriously messed with my mind. Since I listened to it on Audiobook while at work, I found myself going back and forth trying to figure out what was happening and with whom. As my brother describes it: It’s Die Hard but in space. And yeah that was pretty much it. It was a crazy action tale which answered a lot of the questions from the first book. It introduced us to new characters, just as charismatic as Katy and Ezra. And an earwig song that keeps you bopping. All confusion aside, this book is a good second for this trilogy. Can’t wait to read the next!

Small Summary:
Hanna is the station captain’s pampered daughter; Nik the reluctant member of a notorious crime family. But while the pair are struggling with the realities of life aboard the galaxy’s most boring space station, little do they know that Kady Grant and the Hypatia are headed right toward Heimdall, carrying news of the Kerenza invasion.
When an elite BeiTech strike team invades the station, Hanna and Nik are thrown together to defend their home. But alien predators are picking off the station residents one by one, and a malfunction in the station’s wormhole means the space-time continuum might be ripped in two before dinner. Soon Hanna and Nik aren’t just fighting for their own survival; the fate of everyone on the Hypatia—and possibly the known universe—is in their hands.
