Review of 'Morning Star' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

The outstanding conclusion of a very fun series, Morning Star doesn't pull any punches. It's full of twists and turns, enemies that become friends and vice versa. Again, i'm staying away from the spoilers, but I will say that it was a refreshing trilogy, that balanced fun and action with complex world building and most importantly, political awareness.
These are books that not only question power structures but that reflect on the difficulty on changing them, on the immense difficulty of rebuilding after war. The pain and loss that revolution brings, but also the hope and love that fuel it.
This would be an amazing movie series, rivaling easily the hunger games. If you are into sci fi and are looking something fun, fast paced, but also smart and political. Get into it!
