Thank you to Kimberly Grymes and Victory Editing Academy for this ARC!
I have never been extremely interested in sci-fi books. Fantasy has always been my go-to. However, I really enjoyed this one! The addition of magic along with the technology and aliens was something that set this book apart from other sci-fi novels.
I was worried at first about there being so many POVs, but Grymes's description of this book being like a tv show where even the side characters have their own stories to tell made complete sense when I read it. It added so much more to the book to be able to watch all of these characters' storylines converge in a climactic ending that left me very upset that I did not have the second part of this duology.
The only reason I rated this 4 stars instead of 5 is because I was able to predict almost all of the plot twists that occurred due to being able to see so many characters' POVs. However, this didn't take too much away from the enjoyability of watching it all unfold.
I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who loves science fiction, or even to those who don't because this book was so much more than a book about aliens.
