An Echo of Things to Come

This book really only needs one word to describe it: WOW. It takes everything from the first book and builds on it in a really satisfying way, answering questions and throwing more out there. You are left only wanting more. What an engaging plot, what a world the author has created. I cannot wait to dive into the conclusion of this series.

The characters have been split into different groups and locations in this book, but it WORKS. Some authors can't pull this off without feeling like some of characters are less important, but you really feel the weight each group is holding. Everyone is important for different reasons. And once again, the ending of this book just feels like a punch to the gut. There's foreshadowing for this ending in the first book, but you don't see it for what it is until it is literally right in front of you.

Holy crap.

SO GOOD. Five stars.
