H124 and her friends are tracking down the three pieces needed to build the space craft that they plan to use to divert the asteroid. They'll have to travel to numerous places and face both old and new dangers.

I really enjoyed this novel, more than Shattered Roads. The world building was great, I loved reading abut Sanctuary City and Basin City. They were so different and yet they worked well together in the story. Basin City made Sanctuary City seem so much more peaceful, beautiful and necessary. Basin City had such a dangerous, chaotic and destructive element to it. My favorite part was where the team was in Basin City as I loved its dark and dangerous atmosphere and the reader gets to learn about the origin of night stalkers.

The plot was good but I felt it had a little too much action. I really didn't like the Death Riders as they seemed unnecessary. And the death games they forced onto civilians was silly. There were already enough baddies in the novel (PPC and the environment) that death stalkers weren't necessary.

H124 grows and changes in this novel. She explores the world more and it helps her become tougher. The budding romance with Byron surprised me, I always thought she'd pick Rowan. H124 learns more about her parents which was shocking but well written.

In conclusion this is a great dystopian novel with a strong emphasis on climate change. It had great world building with a good plot and good characters.

Thank you to Rebel Base Books and Netgalley for this ARC.
