This is a worthy sequel to Skydwellers, and an improvement overall as a story. Miette was probably my favorite character in the last book due to her story arc and growth as a person, so I was excited to see that she was now the main character. The supporting cast includes old and new characters, and each character is varied and likable.
The overall story is interesting and creative. It's a bit slow in places, but the pacing is overall better than in Skydwellers. The world of these books is really well designed and interesting.
It was interesting to see how Miette had matured from the last book. She could still be a little overly fussy and even selfish, but she also truly cared about the people around her, and she had a sense of duty that was so strong that it was almost a weakness. At first, I was a little critical of that aspect of her personality, since she didn't seem to be listening to what her friends had to say to her about it. But the story seems very much about her having to come to grips with the truth on her own, as many of us do: even if the truth is right in front of us, we still have to choose to accept it. Overall, another good character development arc.
I heartily recommend this book.
