4.5 stars, due to a few predictable plot elements. Still an absolute blast to read. I want more!
beccacoffindaffer's review against another edition
There unfortunately won't be ARCs for Thronebreakers, but since we're about six months out, I still wanted to drop an author's note in here early with some content warnings and so forth.
Content warnings: alcohol use, blood/gore, death/loss/grief, murder, guilt and trauma, science fiction-related violence (i.e., blasters, spaceship battles, etc.)
This book is a little darker, a little bigger in terms of the politics and the stakes, a little more intense. You get to see more of the quadrant, meet a new character or two, and get to know some other characters better.
After what happened at the end of Crownchasers, Alyssa Farshot is like:
And Hell Monkey is dealing with this fallout like:
And everyone else is kinda:
And the plot is basically:
But, y'know...make it scifi.
I amterrifiedexcited for readers to get their hands on this book. I hope so much that you all enjoy the second half of this duology! Happy reading <3

A satisfying conclusion. I didn't find it as engrossing as the first book but I have been very moody about my book choices lately so it might just be me.

Another solid book with well developed characters and a good plot. My one complaint was that everything was relatively predictable in how it turned out on this one. But overall a good story.

A beautiful closure for this duology; with its fair share of plot twists and craziness. Can't wait for Crownchasers to be available in French so I can heavily advise it to all my friends!
