Parallax

Sentient Stars, Book 2

De: Amber Toro

Narrado por: Megan Carver, Benjamin Farmer

An outlaw lost at the edge of the galaxy and an honorable commander who will have to risk everything to save her, Parallax is a heart-pounding, slow burn space opera romance packed with action, adventure, banter, and found family.

The tenuous alliances of the United Tribal Axis have fractured, breaking humanity into warring factions. Hinata finds himself fighting a losing war against an opponent that doesn’t play by the rules. While Freyja focuses all of her efforts on uncovering the origin of the signal that she is convinced is the key to revealing the source of the chaos ripping their society apart. Upon returning from an outer rim mission, Freyja realizes that Skyla hasn’t received a single communication they've sent in months and must convince Hinata to abandon his post to mount a rescue mission in search of the missing captain. But there are forces at play larger than any of them realize.

Great sequel!

Parallax is a good sequel! I was happy to spend time with the gang again, and I really liked Freya’s story this time (she was my least favorite in Umbra). There was some good action, a great conclusion, and some really well done emotional moments. For me, it took a while to get all the characters together and I thought Skyla’s story in particular —especially regarding rescues—took a while to get going.
All in all, this was a great read, an excellent audio, and good sequel. Can’t wait for more from Amber!

Great Sequel!

This made me whoop, cry, and sigh with joy! Such a great sequel to Umbra! The characters face their fears and grow in such a pleasing way! I love the side characters too, especially the AI ships! There were great twists and lots of action to keep you on your toes. I would highly recommend this series for any sci-fi lover who likes a bit of romance :)
