Part spy thriller, part science fiction and a good page turner. ( )

Very intense and suspenseful book, and more enjoyable than the first one. Without giving too much away, I am particularly sensitive to stories (real or fictional) in which somebody is bullied or treated unjustly, and that was the theme for this book. It made me feel very connected to the protagonists and made the book something very difficult to take a break from.

Audiobook notes: the narrator was very good here, with a good variation in his voices (including the female voices). I didn't notice any glaring mispronounciations, and he read at a good pace. ( )

Read this book as part of a series. Sci-fi action stuff. Not terribly deep but in this time of Covid spikes and Holiday and post election stress it was quite enjoyable. I liked the characters and the idea of this ability (teleportation) is fun. Recommend the series for some light exciting reading. ( )

I found the imprisonment and torture scenes incredibly disturbing. This book created a really horrifying sense of helplessness. To see Davy overcome it felt like overcoming it myself. Pretty haunting. ( )
