Review of This Shattered World by Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner

This Shattered World - Amie Kaufman, Meagan Spooner

**SPOILER FREE**

 

This is the second book in the Starbound trilogy so I cant say much without spoilers. 

 

We follow two new star crossed lovers, Jubilee Chase and Flynn Cormac. Jubilee is captain of the forces sent to crush a rebellion on the plant Avon. Flynn is a rebel. 

 

Three different stories. One enemy. 

 

The one thing I really enjoyed was the relationship between Jubilee and Flynn. They didnt fall in love and become stupid and obsessed. They both knew that they would never be able to love each other on different sides of a war. I really enjoyed the lack of insta-love. 

I loved the writing and the mood the authors depicted. I though the world building was done well and there was enough background information from the first novel. I loved seeing the characters from the first book make an appearance here it was nice to see how they ended up. 

 

Overall, I did enjoy the first novel more than this one but I am interested enough to finish the trilogy.
