Truth of the Divine

To me this book was 'just okay'. The story line rambled a bit too much, the characters did not feel fully formed, and the end seemed disappointing. And as for the "Divine", well, I didn't notice it anywhere in the tale.

I'm going to do an extended review on Ellis's second book later, but for now (and in sum): Audiobook narrators saved this story from being a full-on flop of messy narratives.

I'll probably end up listening to the third one anyway...

I should give this another read sometime. Possibly my first impression was affected by my staggering expectations from how much I loved [b: Axiom’s End|51171377|Axiom's End (Noumena, #1)|Lindsay Ellis|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1579072263l/51171377.SY75.jpg|72729696], but I’m not excited to go through it again anytime soon. It lost so much of the emotional core of the previous novel by shifting focus to the global political debate, less-interesting relationships, and restating its points ad nauseam.
