I'm to lazy to find a gif of someone waving their fist in the air because that is what I want to do right now to Nenia!Really!?REALLY?!That's how we are ending it!(starts to ugly cry)Just when I was feeling smart, that I kind of sort of figured out about 1/4 of it before I got to the last 99% of the book, and then WHAM! Just kidding its OVER!I'm gonna pout. For about a week its gonna take me to get over this. I think we might actually have a male antihero that isn't, I daresay, crazy????Or are you gonna twist us all up in knots?I like knots, they are fun, and they make you breath a little harder, and bite your nails fearing you will never escape.If I am being perfectly honest, this was another great book. I hate info dumping world building that makes the first book in a new series sound like a manual to "This is how we build our sci-fi world 101." It was smooth, it sort of layered itself out. I think the characters were created in a way to sort of explain what is really going on, without explaining it. If they were too three dimensional you would get more upset.Can you tell I'm trying not to spoiler?This was a gratifying read that made me laugh my butt off when I got to the end and realized no matter how much I pushed the next page button on my kindle, it wasn't going to magically turn to the next page.I feel bad for Vol, I feel bad for Catan--and I even cried a little. Yes, yes, it is true. In those last few pages my heart was tugged and slashed at and I felt so horribly bad that it made the story even better.So, if you are a follower of my reviews, and you haven't read any of Nenia's books yet, you will notice I gave them all five stars. That means they are awesome--and you should read them!
