![]() ![]() Genetically engineered warriors, they all bear a close physical resemblance to one another, whilst having distinct personalities. Said soldier is Solace, a member of the all-female Parthenon. ![]() Now the Architects could be returning, and Idris, his crewmates, and the soldier who stood by his side all those years ago are caught up in a galaxy spanning race against time. In the years since the war, he has neither aged nor slept, and makes a living piloting a salvage ship through the mysterious realm of unspace. A veteran of the war, Idris Telemmier is an Intermediary – a human being experimented on in an attempt to create a weapon to fight this seemingly invincible enemy. The moon-sized Architects destroyed Earth seemingly effortlessly eighty years ago, with a number of other human settled planets following swiftly afterwards. But one species could spell their destruction. Humanity has expanded into the stars, coming into contact with a variety of weird and wonderful alien races along the way, such as the wormlike Castigar and the crab-shaped Hannilambra. ![]()

![]() Loved the library scenes and all of Lirael’s backstory but I felt like I could’ve either done with fewer scenes from Sam, or just more detail in those scenes. This was definitely my favourite book of the original three. World-building was fascinating and I did feel a good emotional connection with Sabriel, but I wasn’t really buying her romance with Touchstone because I assume a lot of it happened in the time they spent together off-page. ![]() I enjoyed this book, but it wasn’t quite as amazing as everyone had led me to believe. ![]() Okay! Time for another series review, which is definitely what’s going to be happening from now on when I read books too fast and forget specific details of each book. Do not continue reading unless you are fine with being spoiled. Please be aware that this review contains some spoilers. ![]() |
