A review by snowbenton
The Edge of the Abyss by Emily Skrutskie
3.0
The prose was just as good as the first, and this book swirls with angst and longing and self discovery. Unfortunately, the plot falls short. It picks up a month after the first book, and Cas is starting to work through Swift's revealed betrayal. I liked the premise, but it starts out too slow and takes too long to get into, and then it's resolved much too quickly for my liking. I just wish there had been more with the other captain trainees and something other than Cas' self reflection guiding the story.
