It doesn't happen often that the second book is better than the first, but that's what I think about The Offering. This book has more depth and scope than the first part of the story. The cast of characters expanded, and the main characters are well developed. I liked Cori a lot better in this book. She makes mistakes and second guesses her choices some of the time, which makes her a more realistic and likable character. I thought all of the characters based in the City were considerably more interesting than the ones in the other colonies. The settings in Mercy and the City added a lot of detail and back story for the ruined world. There weren't any major plot twists, but there were a few surprises. While the ending was not what I expected, it was a satisfying conclusion to the story. I really enjoyed reading this book.
