WELP!!!!
This series man. It is so good and the twists and turns oooooh! I wanted to throw this book so many times! (Not that I REALLY would because ya know, precious books and all) but still! Everyone has had so much thrown at them that I think nothing else could happen but then out of no where I'm proven wrong. At times I still get a little lost in all the technical stuff, but I'm usually able to sort it out. The world building is amazing and has so much detail it is breathtaking.
I CAN NOT wait for the next book...please?..Now?
Also, Ps... Can I have a Hysan for myself?

Rho has been through many trails, betrayals, heartache, and pain. Those who pretended to have her back where armed with the knife and those who have kept distance always seems to be the ones who she needs to rely on. Even then no one is ever easy to read and always has other plans in mind when winning her trust.
It's not even over yet.
Once more those she looks to for guidance and friendship are the ones who use her name for their plans. Peace has been declared, peace she was not sure existed because the Marad could not have gone quiet without reason, yet no one is willing to listen. Even after another issue arises within the Zodiac. She wants to make those around her understand The Master is part of this. There is no peace. This time is being used against them, to divide them further.
However rather than sit around waiting to see the outcome, Rho visits the Tomorrow Party on an Aquarius planet for The Zodiac and personal reasons. She wants to understand her vision of her mom, she wants to know if this group is truly about bringing people together, and she wants to sort her emotions from what is best for the galaxy.
Yet how she is able to do this when her heart, her instinct has been been what has driven her this far? How does she cast aside those she cares for, those she wants to commit to without writing everyone off and doing the very thing she has warned will be the end of The Zodiac if they do not learn to put aside their fears and work together? How can Rhoma Grace, Wandering Star, explain to everyone she has worries she can trust no one as The Master can be anyone, can be the one of the Guardians meant to protect them, and at the same time tell them to forget how they conflict?
Most of all, while she is trying to save everyone can she finally let go of everything Mathias means to her? Or will she allow the past to rule her in all matters never letting go of the Cancer boy who held her heart once and never moving forward with Hysan?

After reading Wandering Star I should have been prepared for the emotional damage that ensued, but I was not. Rho has been through so much since we first met her in book one. She’s lost her home, her dad and brother, one of her best friends, and the man she loves. She isn’t sure who she can trust anymore and she isn’t sure if she can trust herself, but despite all of this she is still fighting and will continue to fight until she can’t anymore

This series keeps getting more intense with every instalment! It's come a long way and am pretty sure this is my favourite book so far! The action and drama doubled, and there were so many secrets and twists that I could barely keep up with them. While there were a few moments that dragged a little (most of it revolving around Rho and her conflicted heart).
That said, Rho has grown quite a bit. While she can't get her head around relationships. She is much stronger, capable, and more determined than ever. However, I also can't deny that Rho's growth regarding her romantic interests became a lot more complicated. There was also a greater emphasis on her family connections, and I appreciated those a lot more.
On a whole, the story was very compelling. It tied together many layered and complicated characters. No one was one note and everyone had a time to shine, if only for a single chapter. There are a lot of characters I hope to see more of in the final book.
And I NEED to read the final book, because it ended on one of the worst kinds of cliffhangers I've ever encountered. Seriously, the cliffhanger is absurd. I get why it happened, but yikes!
All in all, I'm really liking the maturity, drama, and intensity of this series and look forward to where it will end!

Oh, the drama! Oh, the gravity! Oh, the cliffhanger! We finally got the romantic resolution that the last couple books have been building up to. We also finally get the set up for the final battle. All the cards are on the table. Everything is ready for the last book and was related in an entertaining and intriguing fashion.

Rating: 4.5/5
(Minor spoilers ahead or not, I can’t tell.)
And this is the book where Romina puts herself on my list of deaths that have ruined me for the rest of my existence.
Book numero three continues with the adventures (tragedy, trauma, fight, etc. etc.) of Rhoma (Rho) Grace. The last time we saw (read) Rho she was dealing with the death of her best friend, she found her old school crush/adviser, she was given the title of Wandering Star, she and her brother were betrayed and lost their father, and of course, boy drama, because even in space, where there is a group of risers (The Marad) that want to do a whole lot of evil, there is time for a juicy love triangle. I am but only human and I am weak in the knees for dreamy boys, which I find it hilarious because I hate love triangles, go figure.
A lot of twists and turns have occurred in the life of Rho, and I am still trying very hard to wrap my head around this book. So many things I was not expecting, but others, oh boy I did.
All righty, let’s try and make a honest review out of this baby.
The Marad and the Master are still a big, big problem. But you don’t actually hear from them until basically the very end of the book, however, there is a new group (a political party), and although they are in a the early stages of forming this group, they have a strong following. This new group are uniting to make a better and new tomorrow. Which is supported by Rho’s friend, Nishi, she committed to this and she’s finding different ways of distracting herself from what happened with the love of her life, but since she’s in this group, everything seems legit. (Not going to get into more of this because I will definitely spoil the entire book, but you can already suspect what’s up with these people.)
Anywho, more twists and turns happen. Someone from Rho’s past comes back, (I almost choked on air when I read that part.) And of course, someone gets KILLED. Why?
Thank you, Romina...I am being sarcastic. I did not think I could suffer anymore, but apparently, your heart can still ache after being crushed to bits and pieces from the previous book, but you know, I’m fine.
Hysan Dax is forever a dream boat, and he is the type of guy I would fly round the zodiac. Okay, this has nothing to do with the book or review, I’m just simply stated the obvious; I just really love the guy.
Nevertheless, like any other book that I love, it leaves me hanging by a thread. I need more. Book numero cuatro, you need to be in my hands. I have questions, and those questions need answers.

Está buena la historia.... pero me desespera sobremanera que se la pase describiendo cada lugar o habitación a la que entra, sí, se que nos tiene que ambientar pero hay detalles sin los que podriamos vivir y fácil serian 100 páginas menos.
Toda la situación que nos dejó el libro anterior con la traición de Aryll y la muerte de Deke a pesar de no estar recordandolos a cada momento, si interfiere en el comportamiento de Stan y de Nishi principalmente.
La indecisión de Rho con Mathias y Hysan me desespera, por que ella jura no tener las cosas claras pero hace todo lo contrario y confunde más a ambos.
Todo el relajo que se arma con el Partido del Futuro me dejó inpactada, y ese final Wow, espero que tenga una buen final la saga y que no me sienta estafada. Sigo siendo #TeamHysan
