Absolutely loved this book! Such a great sequel that is just as interesting, if not moreso, than the predecessor! There's also a new character this go around and it's interesting watching him develop as the story goes along. Great sci-fi duology with a satisfactory ending.

The first book, The Raging Ones, left our heroes: Court, Franny, and Mykal, on quite the cliffhanger. The book follows the trio as they contnue to process all they've learned along with searching for answers for all they don't. Thrown into the unknown, they fight to each other safe.
This duology took a concept that I've always loved and took it to the next level. The idea of people being more connected than connected. Thrown together in a way you could never walk away from. The last book absolutely blew my mind, I loved the characters their dynamics and the fact that I never could quite predict what would happen next. Even within this book, I just went with the journey and had a great time.
This story is so fun, dramatic, dynamic, and somehow incredibly heartfelt all at once. Every turn of the plot is awesome, but every individual scene is equally as entertaining. The quality of this book really does blow me away. Considering that I'm not a huge sci-fi fan, this book is about people and love and finding peace, which is what I connect to.
I love the dialogue between all the characters who have such different relationships with each other. You have three characters who can feel, taste, and smell everything the others felt, so you know characters have weird relationships. People are funny in a very laugh-out-loud way, yet hits you in a very emotional way. I love this book. I loved this series, They authors have a special place in my heart listed under: inst-buy.

Cover appeal- The Last Hope has a very basic cover in comparison to a lot of books coming out, but I think that’s what makes it even more appealing. So many books lately have such intricate covers that the story inside doesn’t live up to the art. Looking at the cover of The Last Hope you can clearly tell that the book is sci-fi/fantasy based.

Story- At the end of The Raging Ones (book 1) I was completely left shocked by that twist. I had always assumed that the characters were human, but I never considered that everyone else wasn’t. It was such a good place to leave off that I was counting the days until the release of The Last Hope. Watching Court, Mykal, and Franny’s relationship evolve within their group and with other characters was great. The ending felt kind of random, but when you consider it’s sci-fi, I suppose it isn’t really. The epilogue was the perfect ending for the series and left me satisfied with the story. All the lose ends were tied up and the characters felt like they got the ending they deserved. I absolutely loved their main new character, but he is very reminiscent of one of the male protagonists in their romance series. My only real complaint was the planet names. Some paragraphs I’d get stuck on because it felt like I was constantly repeating the same sentence because Saltare was so over used.

Overall, this is a book I will preorder and reread multiple times.

The second in the duology that brings about the ending that you need to read. The action starts right off the bat. It is perfect for any sci-fi fans.
If you haven't read the first book start there!
