I liked the flow of the novel . . . The Zodiac guardians believed peace was finally achieved, but . . . Rho and her friends know the Master is still out there.

There are a lot of themes in this arc than in the previous two novels. Even though Rho was a bit irritating in the first two books - I finally connected to her as a character.

All of them are broken - and none of them . . . was the same after what had happened. Rho lets Mathias down as she realises what she felt was nothing but a memory. Mathias still jumps if she snaps her fingers (yes, he shouldn't), which showcases the deep bond of friendship he and Rho share.

Hysan - on-the-other hand - brings out another part of her that she fears. He changed the norm and made her see; how things could/should be different. He is still a mysterious character with his flaws and the secrets he has to keep.

Rho's best friend Nishi gets taken after she discovers a political party wasn't as it seems. (Of course, they fought about it) Nishi was dealing with grief in a way that wasn't healthy.

The Master gets unmasked and throws her whole orbit into chaos. Stan dies - and Rho's mind just seized functioning, and everything that has happened becomes too much for her to handle. Something inside her just broke - switching off all logic and emotions.

Overall, I enjoyed the addition to the Zodiac series. ( )

This book again, like the first 3, couldn't put it down. The worlds are laid out so well and the character development is so great. I will be starting the last one soon. I have high hopes! ( )

Once again, I enjoyed getting to explore more of the Zodiac worlds through the eyes of the characters, which were my favorite parts. The worlds are so interesting, but I wish we could see more of them.

The characters themselves were ok, nothing too special. Rho is less annoying, which was a definite bonus, though she across as a little preachy.

The story was good, but it suffered from "middle book slump" because there seemed to be a lot less happening and a lot more talking along with lovey stuff. That being said, the ending was interesting. I really did not see that twist coming. ( )
