Review of 'Scars of Cereba' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
3.5/5
The story picks up right after the events of the first book. Falon’s mind is broken and he struggles to keep himself together as three people inside his head try to take control. I think this first half of the book was by far the most interesting. It was really interesting to see Falon switch between his personalities, all trying to reach different goals and slowly merging together.
The second half of the book felt a bit more rushed and although the actual events were good it just didn’t feel as explored as I would have liked. I did however enjoy how Sari grew into herself once again, but this time making far worse mistakes along the way. It was very cool to see how things played out!
The ending was rather emotional and I think it made sense based on how things have progressed. I would have liked …

The ending was rather emotional and I think it made sense based on how things have progressed. I would have liked to have seen Lucan and Pharah more prominent in the story as well but it seems they were there to show that the world did have some good after all.
Overall I think it was a beautiful book and the ideas were really unique. The only criticism would be the pacing and spending more time on the world itself.
