Divinity II by Matt Kindt
4.0
And it does take off with this second volume.
One of Divinity’s comrades finds her way back from outer space. After her encounter with The Unknown she possesses the same god-like powers that he does. But she has completely different plans of how to use them.
She’s not exactly happy with what happened to the Soviet Union and since she’s able to travel back and forth in time she figures she should have a little talk with some people.
All of them pretty well known.
So the MI-6, after capturing Divinity in the last book, decides to bring him in for peace talks. Though they might have slightly overestimated their control over him anyway.
Divinity is following his former colleague and tries to talk sense into her while she clearly prefers to kick his ass.
It was great fun. And with the political and historical bits there‘s also a second layer to this. I really like the direction this took after the first volume. I was a little concerned about that, considering how the first book ended. But this turned out to be unjustified.
Looking forward to the third one now.
