Where this book was slightly behind the first, is that it didn't wrap up as neatly. The first one did a great job of resolving the main conflict while still leaving a larger arch for the series. This volume resolved a small part of the story conflict but left a lot of major plot points for the next volume. An excellent sequel to The Glass Sentence. Rather than continue to develop the bond between Theo Thackaray and Sophia Tims, Grove has them split apart by circumstances, with Sophia continuing her search for her missing parents, without the help of her guardian, Shadrack Elli, while Theo stays in Boston to help Shadrack face a political foe. Both stories are compelling and interesting, and were left off in a good place for the conclusion of the trilogy. Their new companions are interesting and diverse, and I especially liked the Inspector's daughter. I really, really enjoyed this book! I really liked how the two main characters were on different adventures - one went on a journey/travel, and the other stayed and tried to solve a mystery. I found that this really helped to balance out the book and plot by breaking up the typical "going on a journey" second book trope. The characters in this book are great :) Sophia and Theo just make me happy. They are independent, thoughtful, and kind characters and I liked how they were able to progress and grow up a little by going on their separate quests. There was definitely room for more character development, but because this is middle grade, I was okay with how things went. The world created is so cool! I love the concept of "The Great Disruption" and how different continents are in different parts of time. I liked that we got to travel to a new place and experience their world, but still get insight into what was happening back home. Overall, I super enjoyed this and can't wait to read the final book! 4.25/5 stars ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu
