Render by K.A. Riley
4.0
The Dystopia and Adventure Continues
I will be honest, second books in trilogies are not my favorites. I didn’t like Render as much as Recruitment, either. But I kept in mind that it’s a second. Authors are forced to recap and set up for the showdown simultaneously. But Riley does give us meat, and the last 25% of the book lives up to the excellence of Recruitment. I loved that readers get to see and learn more about Kress’s connection with Render. Manthy is reluctantly heroic, as she uses her gift, and I believe Brohn’s gift is a little more than hinted at. Secrets are revealed. And the past comes back to help lead to the future.
