After such a strong start in the first volume things definitely faltered here in volume 2. Talon is fun, but strictly a one-note character. Tara at least gets an exposition dump to explain why she can't have feelings for Ben, but really the story feels like it is going nowhere.
The good thing is Ben finds out his father isn't a good person. To quote our main character, "My father was Space Hitler?!"
If anything Chris Roberson shows his biggest faults as a writer here. Lots of style, but little substance.

The art is just as good as the first volume but the story is much better. The pace has picked up and it no longer is a straight forward chosen one narrative. I look forward to the next and final volume.
