3-3.5 starsI loved Line and Orbit, and this was good, but missing something, not sure I can put my finger on it. Love Adam and Loch, really wish we got more of just them, but adore them and their love for each other. Not sure I will continue with the series, it is kind of...sad. I may just end it here.
Started with so much melodrama and wasn't getting better. DNF.
At first I felt underwhelmed, I don't exactly know why, maybe the direction in which the story was going wasn't what I had in mind for the characters. But nevertheless, it was an exciting read.
Seriously enjoyable space-opera/sci-fi with a compelling relationship in the middle. I left off reading this for way to long because I enjoyed book one so much and was scared. While it maybe doesn't pack quite as much of a punch as book one, it is still really compelling space-opera. In less skilled hands the world and world building could easily feel boring and derivative but Moraine's prose and overall story don't let that happen. I could have liked a little bit more time for character develop...
Disclaimer : I was given an ARC of this book in exchange of a review.And this was a really good book ! I liked the story and the character. Although it was a bit frustrating in the beginning : I didn't know this book was not only part of a series but the 2nd book in said series! There were no indication of such in the summary or in the title, so I got pretty annoyed at all the references there were about all the events that happened before. Also, the whole "chosen one"/"woe is me"/"weary is the
2.5 stars. I really loved the first book in this series. It was a sweeping space opera with a compelling plot and interesting characters. Did not enjoy this one nearly as much. It continues the storyline of the first book, but was much more boring. It took almost a month to finish! A month! Unreal. It was overlong, the settings that were so cool in the first book were underutilized, the characters dull, the space magic far less charming. I found myself not really caring about Adam and Lochlan an...
A great sequel.
Fall and Rising, the sequel to Line and Orbit, picks up the threads of the first novel and evolves them. It's a more mature sort of novel – not in terms of racy content, though it is a kissing book – but in the way it dives deep into the characters' choices and the consequences of those choices. All the characters are dealing with the aftermath of a major battle, and trying to cope with their trauma while facing new threats. They’re dealing with profound loss at the same time as they’re simply t...
Took me a while to get into this one, probably because I couldn't remember any of the characters. Then I raced through the rest of it.
This was still an excellent sequel to book one
-I was given this book in exchange for an honest review- The world needs a book like this in it. This book needs to get its name out there more.This book not only has an amazing fantasy element packed with adventure and action, it has romance, and such diverse characters. I feel as if this novel would make for an amazing movie and it would hit the box offices like gold. It has characters of different ethnicity's, characters with unique names (or unique to their culture), it isn't just one cultur...
Like with the first book, this was just what I needed. I love the extended story and while some parts of the book are Just Sad, it also reflects the realities of this world and I am so excited to see what happens next. IT'S SO GOOD!!!
Not nearly as good as the first one in this series Line and Orbit but has its own place in this dystopian world. I enjoyed this book but I feel like you have to read the first one to fully appreciate Fall and Rising. I loved how the characters Adam and Lock progressed in their relationship and this is what saved the book for me. these two will always be special to me as Moraine is brilliant at creating tension between these two so that we see how they really care for one another without always b...
Really liked this one. It's a good follow-up to Line and Orbit (which I had meant to reread before this came out but didn't get around to doing), but stands on its own fairly well too. The plot advances significantly in terms of the overall mytharc of this universe, and it was neat to see so many threads start coming together. The way that Lochlan and Adam's relationship changes and matures through this book was also really great to see - the nuance and the struggle in navigating their relations...
Do not read this book first!Definitely read Line and Orbit first, it’s book one in this series and you’ll need to have read it first. Book one is hard to find, but worth the hunt. This second book is an excellent follow up to the first, there is much less world building. However the relationship building and rising tensions as our main characters face unavoidable battles is handled very well. It’s an important second book in the series. I found all three refreshingly original. I’ve read some peo...
