(  ) KrakenTamer | Oct 23, 2021 | I'm enjoying these stories so much that I'm prepared to risk wetting myself because I can't be bothered to put the book down a moment. Shame on you, Mr. Tregillis. It's ok, perhaps I'll rearrange my entire life so that when I was 17 I got into such a large car accident that I had to be fitted with a permanent catheter just so when I finally get around to reading this novel I'll have found that I don't actually need to get up to use the restroom and so therefore all things are copacetic again. Did I really expect a time travel novel? No, but I'm thinking it works in a hell-ya kinda way. Maybe I should get some sleep? Nah, it's time to start the third novel. ( ) bradleyhorner | Jun 1, 2020 | First of all, and I cannot express this more strongly, this is one of the most depressing book series that I could even imagine enjoying. Take the already depressing WWII and make it even more depressing. To be more specific would introduce spoilers, but consistently throughout the story characters have to make choices with no good options. People will kill and die and each one has more of an emotional impact than you'll expect. Well worth the read, but maybe not if you are already feeling blue. (  ) Skybalon | Mar 19, 2020 |
 There were scenes here that were simply stunning. There were cool ideas and wonderful moments backed up with excellent prose. But that’s not what kept me going back for more again and again (sometimes when I really didn’t have the time to read but I just had to read a few pages more anyway). It was the character interaction. It was the way the story wove in and out of various viewpoints and crisscrossed each other. Every time I thought I knew where the story was going, a new twist would be added. Gretel’s character in particular was a favorite. We never get her as a viewpoint character, instead focusing more on her brother Klaus (who was really fascinating to read about as well). Throughout the last book and this one it’s seen that Gretel has a plan for this grand future ahead and every action she takes is helping her get to that foreseen future. Some of the actions appear meaningless and others confusing. I loved reading about her and seeing her scheme her way towards her goal. The ultimate payoff of that work at the end of this book was great. The book tied up well while at the same time leaving me salivating for more. Age Recommendation: 16+ nothing especially egregious Language: Not a ton, but there. Violence: A bit. Fascinating and cool, but a bit. Sex: Mentioned but not shown.

One of my new favorite series. Love that it is going to end with the next book. Plus, it's got a fantastic cover. (
