Dreams Bigger Than Heartbreak

Anders continues her big-hearted space opera with the same generosity that made the first book so appealing. The novel is full of adventure and ideas, but its real strength is in how much it cares about its characters and their relationships. It’s optimistic without being naive, and expansive without losing emotional clarity. For readers who like their YA science fiction to be warm, idealistic, and full of possibility, it’s a great fit.
