Review of 'Grave Peril' on 'GoodReads'
3 stars
3.5/5 Probably my least favourite in the series so far but I can see how it provided some valuable context for the extent of Harry's power and his relationship with certain factions. Looking forward to the next one.

Review of 'War Girls' on 'GoodReads'

Interesting premise and setting but just boring execution. I didn't feel engaged in the story at all or really care about any characters. The technology was also glossed over and never really explained and used terms that probably showed up in a quick google like when they reference using a SIEM to protect their mech, which is a defensive security tool but doesn't really make sense in the context. I think if you are interested in the premise you are probably better off reading a book about the actual Nigerian civil war.

Basically I didn't love this as much as wayfarer but it was a great speculative title and still had the warmth of Becky's other titles. I hope there are some other books released in this timeline to explore the impacts of human manipulation.
