Synopsis

After surviving the Hunger Games–like Testing, Eva becomes the Aerie's first female Archon. The second installment of the Books of Eva continues the harrowing struggle between past and present, Aerie and Boundary.Eva is the first Maiden in Aerie history to train as an Archon: a sacred leader of the New North. All eyes are watching as she prepares to uncover the Relics of the evil past. Wounds remain, both from the harrowing Testing and the murder of her brother, Eamon, but she has learned to feign grace. And although she is betrothed to Jasper, she still finds herself drawn to Lukas, a Boundary dweller and former servant who may know who killed her twin brother.Her relationship with Lukas is forbidden. And his conviction that she is the Angakkuq, a mystical figure destined to destroy the Aerie, is even more dangerous. On her very first Archon expedition, she uncovers the Genesis, the legendary ship that brought the Founders to the New North; its contents threaten the fragile balance between the Aerie and the Boundary. Eva's world is shattered, but she may be the only one—as both Archon and Angakkuq—who can prevent a war that will annihilate their entire civilization.

Goodreads review by Erik

While entertaining in some ways, this book just didn't handle character conflict well--that is, what little character conflict there is. Everyone gets along more-or-less, no one holds grudges for long, and romantic possibilities are all fulfilled with clock-like regularity. Everyone is chummy and so......more

Goodreads review by Dorian

It's H. Beam Piper's fault really. He wrote this great short story called "Omnilingual", which is about human archaeologists on Mars, trying to decipher the ancient Martian language. I read it at an impressionable age, and ever since I've had this Thing for stories about xenoarchaeology (of which th......more

Goodreads review by Dan

This was fascinating to me as an exercise in very creative thinking set to terrible prose. I actually think some clever thinking went into planning a realistic novel set on a space mission to Mars, but it was written like exactly what you'd expect a novel about a space mission to Mars would sound li......more

“Terrell has created a unique dystopian novel set in the future but where the people of the New North live by almost medieval rules and standards. Eva, ever the rule-following young maiden, is struggling with learning the truth about the past and how it fits into her and her people’s future.” VOYA
