I have been waiting (very impatiently!!!) for the second Nyxia book to come out. I am not going to lie I desperately want to read book three!!

Book two picks up right where Nyxia left off. I don't want to give to much away because this is a fast paced book with a lot of twists and turns. Who survived leaving the Babel ship and the trip to Eden? The crew finds out that they are stuck between both Babel and the Adamites. They need to sort through all the lies and figure out where their loyalties lie.

This is a phenomenal series and I absolutely cannot recommend it enough!! Read this series!!

Thanks to Netgalley for this ARC. 5/5 stars.

AHHHH! I have to wait a whole YEAR for the third book?!?!?!

This book is amazing! Great representation, compelling story, and a ton of adventure! I loved the first book and this one was even better. I have incredibly high hopes for book #3.

UGH I'M SO UPSET WITH MYSELF FOR FINISHING THIS because it was SO EXCELLENT and I don't even know what to DO with the world now. (Maybe read my Backman? Okay, there are worse situations to be in.)

This was super delightfully pacey also. I have had zero free time to read because I've been hanging out with people and I think these people have become annoyed with me because they'll walk away for five seconds and come back and have me not talk to them because I'm suddenly absorbed in finding out if everyone's gonna die (LIFE LESSON: KEEP NYXIA IN YOUR SHOE. OKAY? Yes, I mean the book, what do you think I'm talking about?)

I do wish that I had reread the first before I had read this because I remembered adoring all the characters and... of course, I couldn't remember any of them. I enjoyed getting to know them all more, and characters like Isadora really brought some excitement, but I kind of want to take notes now for when I read book three. I didn't often forget that they were teenagers, which was nice--they're quirky and playful and resilient and I want to be friends with them all.

This didn't feel as much like ENDER'S GAME as a more sci-fi dystopian book--most of it takes place on the new planet and there's a lot of world building. I would have liked more, but what was there was very well thought out and intriguing. I want to learn more, and I loved all the culture and history built in.

Some plot points felt too well planned... but who'm I to criticise alien species for being smart?

The cliffhanger, while having significantly more on the line than the last, wasn't half as bad. Thank goodness. But I still want the final installment right now!

I'm reminded why I am going to shove my copy of NYXIA down everyone's throats because everyone needs to love this book.

I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. Thank you, Crown, this one was one of my most anticipated books of the year!

I am really impressed with this sequel! In a trilogy, the second book is crucial to the entirety of the series. It not only needs to tie book one and book three together seamlessly, but it needs a lot of action to keep readers interested. No problem with that here.

I loved Nyxia, but Nyxia Unleashed is just on a whole new level. The writing is more sophisticated, the pacing is perfect, the worldbuilding is vivid, and Scott's ability to juggle a large cast of characters should be commended. There are a lot of characters in this series, but they each have their own unique personality that jumps off the page. As a writer, that's a hard thing to achieve but Scott makes it look effortless.

I received an ARC copy from netgalley for my honest review,  so thank you netgalley and publishers for offering me this book! ♡
This story is a followup to Nyxia. We get to meet the Adamites in this book. The conspiracy theories are bigger amd better then ever. I can't really say too much without spoiling the first book.
This was my second book by this author, It was just as amazing as the first! It was all together an easy read. ♡ I give this book a
4.5 star rating!

"Fallen angels were cast down to earth and became demons. When Babel casts us out, it's in fire and blood and steel."
SCOTT HAS DONE IT AGAIN. I have never been so wholly impressed with a writing style, story, progression, and characters. I loved that this book set the stage for forging the friendships that will bring Babel down!
"I sit there long after she falls asleep, thinking about the family we’ve forged, not through blood, but through steel and chaos."
I couldn't put it down. I almost don't know what to say because I've now read both books in the series so far and I can't gush enough without feeling like I am spoiling something. Every word feels important. And that's the reason I'm sure this will be my favorite read of 2018.

I received a copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Yes! This was such an amazing followup to Nyxia. We finally get to meet the Adamites. The conspiracy theories only get bigger. And so many cute Emmett/Morning scenes. There's even a few POV chapters from other characters which I really hope we get more of in the last book.

Why not 5 stars? There were some really cool plot developments that looked like the were going to go somewhere, but that never did, and that never will. While I loved what I read, I feel like I missed out on some really cool stuff the book teases you with.

YAY BOOK TWO!! I loved the first one so much, this most certainly didn't disappoint. Wow is all I can really say, I don't want to give any spoilers for the series. If you love sci-fi please just check this series out. As always thankyou for Netgalley for providing a copy for my honest review.
