What a way to kick off Phase II of the High Republic. This book is somehow funny and light, while also being a complete gut punch. I once again got attached to characters that I shouldn't have. The writing of this book is also just fantastic, and so far it's been the best book I've read in Phase II.

After spending so much time getting to know the Phase I characters and stories, I was apprehensive about a prequel timeskip, especially knowing that would bring in EVEN MORE characters to get to know, but Tessa and Justina did an incredible job of captivating me and hooking me in right away. I instantly felt connected with the story and characters. I would say that I’m a little shocked they had a character death this early, but this is THR after all! Anyways, I think this was a really great intro to Phase II of THR and I cannot wait to see where this section of the story goes—and I’ll be keeping my eye out for easter eggs to Phase I!
