Written by Amie Kaufman & Jay Kristoff, with Journal Illustrations by Marie Lu
Kady, Ezra, Hanna, and Nik have all escaped the Heimdall after a universe altering ending. Now they are refuges on the Mao, with 2,000 others. Provisions and air are running short and BeiTech is still out for blood. Asha is back on Kerenza and has joined an underground resistance. But, what will she do when her old boyfriend, Reys, shows up as a BeiTech soldier. And, then of course there is AIDAN! Obsidio brings together the plot lines from Illuminae and Gemina, with lots of new plot twists and surprises.
This is a great book for fans of sci-fi books with twisted corporations and characters that are forced to be strong in the face of adversity. There is a lot of language, but it is redacted. Other content includes violence and some sexual innuendo. While this book is entirely unique, if you liked Staflight by Melissa Landers you will like this book.
