Upon her orders, Mather's New Horizon unleashed an attack that devastated the Empyrean crew and killed most of the adults onboard. And then one day, out of the blue, the New Horizon captained by Anne Mather requested permission to board The Empyrean. Two spaceships heading to New Earth hadn't crossed paths for light-years. *** This review contains SPOILERS of first book 'Glow' *** Overall, this is probably the best "second" installment of a series since.dare I say it? Catching Fire? I read it in a few hours and now I'm excited to get my hands on the third book as soon as possible. I both envy and pity her at points as she goes through periods of extreme strength and weakness-some of which are rather frightening and graphic. Waverly experienced the most transformation as she worked through the emerging darker side that was brought to the forefront during her captivity which gives her a very tangible personality. The plot was action packed and managed to move the entire story arc forward while also maintaining a plot of its own. This book is leaps and bounds above the first. The story was intriguing enough to get me to read this one and I'm really glad I gave the series a second chance. I liked the characters (especially Waverly) but the religious aspect was something I found tiring and.a little creepy in ways. I have to admit, after reading the first book in the series, I was lukewarm about this. Can they find the true culprit before Kieran locks them away… or worse? Will Waverly follow her heart, even if it puts lives at risk? Now more than ever, every step could bring them closer to a new beginning – or a sudden end. Waverly knows that the situation will only get worse until they can rescue their parents – but how?īefore they have time to make a plan, an explosion rocks the Empyrean, and Seth and Waverly are targeted as the prime suspects.

Forced to leave their captive parents behind on the New Horizon, she’s returned only to find that Kieran has become a strict leader and turned the crew against Seth. The memory of home has been keeping her alive for the past months… but home is nothing like she left it.
