Review: Children of Scarabaeus

Children of Scarabaeus

(Sequel to Song of Scarabaeus)
 

Science Fiction Adventure with a dash of romance

Published by Harper Voyager












My Summary:

Edie and her bodyguard, Finn, have been through hell and back and now, with a plan to save the fringe worlds from further oppression, they’re fleeing Crib space. When plans don’t go quite as expected, they find themselves in the one place they didn’t want to be: back in Natesa’s control. Now, as Edie learns the true extent of Natesa’s plans, she begins to see there’s more important things at risk than her own escape.

My Review:

Ms. Creasy has done it again. This novel is one I couldn’t bear to put down. Like its predecessor, her second novel is action packed and quite unpredictable. The emotional and mental strain of her protagonist is entirely relatable, even in an entirely foreign environment.

Buy, Borrow, Brush Past:

This novel, and Sara’s debut, Song of Scarabaeus, are both novels you should own. Seriously.

Sometimes it takes a quartet to make a song sound right...
