Video Review: https://youtu.be/Oh17of8BO7g
This is a companion novella within the science fiction fantasy series that starts with Dark Theory. I loved the first book and so I was interested to read more within this world.
I liked this one, but since it's not required reading within the series, I found myself overly aware that the story wasn't critical to the larger story. I found myself wanting to continue on with the main story with the second book, rather than segway to this additional story. To be fair to the author, I feel this way about virtually every companion novella.
The writing remains consistently strong with this author. This one has an entertaining self contained story with an interesting plot and complex characters. It felt long enough to be fully fleshed out and satisfying.
Perhaps it's not entirely fair to criticize a book for not being something it was never marketed to be. Again, I really enjoy this series but my interest remains with the main story first and foremost.
Disclaimer I received a copy of this book from the publisher.
