I received this as an arc from the publisher whom I thank. The review is my own.
In this sequel to Ink and Bone Jess is serving in the Library's army but nothing is as he thought it would be. He has discovered something unbelievable, his best friend thought to be dead may be alive, held prisoner by the Library. If there is even a chance Thomas is alive Jess has to grab at it no matter what the fall out is. This time they are all forced to flee Alexandria, wanted fugitives. But in their fight Jess will come across the unsettling fact that no one is what they seem and that the choice presented to him now will cost him every thing he holds dear. They are now on the very front lines of this war.
As we learn more about the characters in this story we begin to comprehend the true depravity that is at the center of a world that is being torn apart. The lives of all hang in the balance and Jess' choices will be the only thing that can save or doom them all. The story line radiates with individual choices and sacrifices, personal greed and destruction on an unimaginable scale. The world is tipping and there is no safety net.
I definitely recommend this series. A great gripping world full of individual struggles that have ramifications for all. Recommend to those who love books that challenge you to place yourself in the situations presented. How well do you know yourself?
