Moving to a space station at the edge of the galaxy was always going to be the death of Hanna’s social life. Nobody said it might actually get her killed.
The sci-fi saga that began with the breakout bestseller Illuminae continues on board the Jump Station Heimdall, where two new characters will confront the next wave of the BeiTech assault.
Hanna is the station captain’s pampered daughter; Nik the reluctant member of a notorious crime family. But while the pair are struggling with the realities of life aboard the galaxy’s most boring space station, little do they know that Kady Grant and the Hypatia are headed right toward Heimdall, carrying news of the Kerenza invasion.
When an elite BeiTech strike team invades the station, Hanna and Nik are thrown together to defend their home. But alien predators are picking off the station residents one by one, and a malfunction in the station’s wormhole means the space-time continuum might be ripped in two before dinner. Soon Hanna and Nik aren’t just fighting for their own survival; the fate of everyone on the Hypatia—and possibly the known universe—is in their hands.
But relax. They’ve totally got this. They hope.
My Rating: 8.5/10
I actually think I loved this book even more than Illuminae if that is even possible.
I found that I didn't like Kady and Nik as much as Kady and Ezra but that's the only negative I can think of at the moment.
I loved how much the story progressed especially in ways that I never ever saw coming. I loved all the new settings and characters as well.
It took me a little while to get into the book because of the distances style of writing, but once I got settled I read in practically non-stop, all 600 pages.
This book was action-packed and constantly kept me on the edge of my seat.
I love how unique the formatting of these books are although it makes me feel a little distanced from the characters and story when I first start reading.
