Hello Readers! Here we go again!! Welcome to another book review! This one right here is special, that i don't want to peep talk about it in the opening so much, so without further ado let's just dive in right away!!

Synopsis

Welcome to the Heimdall jump station. A huge spining circle worm hole with living space in it for people live in it lead by our main character, Hanna Donnely's father. Being the jump station this Heimdall is kind of huge station that also become the transmitter of the information across the universe (more like the a bit kind of satellite imo.) This ability made Heimdall become the place that BeiTech want to took control of it because of their crime for what happened in Kerenza IV.

BeiTech is going to take down the station by force and start the operation in 15days before the arrival of the Kerenza survivor in Hypatia flight. BeiTech send the team in order to do that, lead by Travis Falk, in Terra Day (which is such a huge holiday) and killed Hanna's father to take control of Heimdall. Hanna, who raised by his father, educated a lot about military, politic and tactics, just won't surrender to them. But BeiTech didn't just plan to take control of Heimdall but already sent an assault fleet to attack Heimdall station, and it will arrive faster than Hysteria.

My Review

If the first book give the dystopian vibes by the attack of the planet, running away from a pursuing fleet that determined to kill you, AI that become a mass murderer, and a sickness that simply made people become like a living zombie, or probably psychopath that love to kill in my opinion, so yeah simply a dystopian heavy. But this second book took the adventure into another level! Not only full of action, we encounter with deadly monster (that's what i call it as : monster) but also sci-fi heavy with multi-universe theory!

Well i clearly didn't see it coming. I thought it was a trick from the BeiTech team, turns out it is not! I mean like, what is this?? it's completely different with the first book. If the first book the main female character is the smart IT geek, in this book She is the smart strategic girl with lots of kung fu moves (that's what i call it, not actual kung fu but close) and the male character in this book, Nik Malikov is a criminal! Rarely encounter this type of character (or i might be just haven't read much book, free to judge me).

But of course we need another IT geek here in order to surpass the BeiTech's plan, and there we met Nik's causin : Ella Malikova. As someone who physically disable, she is none like that in cyber world. Her nickname as little spider just made sense. Of course we encounter AIDAN's unique narration in this book too just like the first book. I just love when AIDAN describe things, i think i have things with AI, cuz i had same feeling with Carl in A Beautifully Foolish Endeavor by Hank Green i believe i'm normal, but again you can freely judge me.

My Verdict

It's definitely a Woot! Woot! for me (direct here if you dunno what it means) I love this one even more than the first book, but i've gave the first book 5 out of 5 stars, this one should be more, but well.. you know what i mean. This one is superb! definitely highly recommended!
