About Scott Reintgen:
IMHO: Nyxia Unleashed
I really enjoyed Nyxia, but it wasn't without it's problems. Like convenient deaths and not so subtle twists. I wasn't convinced by the quick romance, but reminded myself adrenaline builds relationships.
With the MC left shuttling out to space and fading to black, I was very excited for the next book.
Nyxia Unleashed begins RIGHT where Nyxia left off. I didn't have problems keeping up but refreshing my memory with a character list would've been good. If you were bored of the repetitive tasks of the Babel training (which I was very surprised to read is a common enough complaint in negative reviews), there's no repetition here.
- Everything is a new experience, new places, new people, new information.
- Nyxia....I was not prepared for the reveals about it. At all.
- The romance won me over
- The Ice Queen melted.
- Different people stood out
- Love the leadership changes and portrayal
- Love the character progression
- Babel Vs. Imago feels like a real chess match fitting trillion dollar capitalist colonizers and an advanced alien civilization.
- Imago and their culture are not perfect and are relatable
- Fuck colonizers!!!!
- FIGHT THE POWER!!!!
Of course, ends on a major OH SHIT twist that makes me want to read the next one right NOW.
I can't think of a single solitary thing to complain about. Well, I do think it's a pity how binary both cultures are, but that's a ubiquitous problem.
Fav Quotes from Nyxia Unleashed:
He never apologized for a single tear. Neither will I.
A little more research and we discover the worst: the Imago live in a world without chocolate.
I have not prayed for him up here in space, but I have threatened whichever gods are listening. Keep him safe, or I will come for you, too.
The kind of men who wear imaginary crowns always enjoy a stage.
