Since the last book the brutal war on the planet Thuvhe, between the Thuvhe and the warrior nomadic Shotet has been notices and taken center stage in the interplanetary politics. This I think was a good choice as in the past Veronica Roth has said she write better in the voice of her female characters. The book is written in the first person for Cyra, and Cisi (Akos' sister), and in the third person for Akos himself. There is a lot more political intrigue, maneuvering, and manipulation along with some big plot twist. It is still very slow paced, and there are probably less fights in this book then there were in the last book, but the story is much better and fills in many of the holes/problems in the first book. I wanted to give it 3.5 stars but is it such an improvement on the last book I thought it deserved a round up rather then down. This was a lot better then the first book.
