Description

The universe grows cold. Only a few stars persist in dark matter wastelands. Among these last embers, the ashes of war smolder.

On the planet-sized Worldship, Nezantes, the loyal servant of King Darsen, seeks to restore the reign of his ruler. For this end he will do anything, even if it means igniting the last stars in a final war. Caught in the middle of this looming conflict are Solaz, a man losing his humanity, and Isolde, a woman who may have never been human.

Solaz and Isolde will pursue the duty-bound Nezantes past the ends of the world. Their desperate chase will take them among the broken and decrepit heavens. They will see what has become of the stubborn works of humanity and, if Nezantes has his way, they will witness another step towards the last breath of the cosmos.

The universe grows cold. Only a few stars persist in dark matter wastelands. Among these last embers, the ashes of war smolder.

On the planet-sized Worldship, Nezantes, the loyal servant of King...

Holy wah! I love this book. Yes, it is a very long read. Yes, the ending made angry because I didn't get the closure that I wanted. But this book was still so good! This book had me energized and burning for more the entire way through. I almost cried for characters who had existed for only a chapter or two. Gryn does a marvelous job of combining science fiction and steampunk elements into this book.

There are a lot of transitions in this book. From one character's perspective to another's, from present to past. The character perspectives are transitioned by the ending and starting of different chapters so they're easy to follow. The present to past transitions, however, can be a little tricky. It wasn't too often that I got confused, especially after hitting the flow of the book, but there were a couple that made me have to go back a page to figure out what was going on.

This book is not for casual readers. It is an intense read that requires a lot of time. But oh what fun that time is. I would love to see this turned into an anime (if The Mahabharata) hasn't already inspired an anime. The godly armors and weapons would be amazing to behold. I am hoping that the second volume will be able to keep up.
