The sci-fi saga that began with the breakout bestseller Illuminae continues on board the Jump Station Heimdall, where two new characters will confront the next wave of the BeiTech assault.
Hanna is the station captain's pampered daughter; Nik the reluctant member of a notorious crime family. But while the pair are struggling with the realities of life aboard the galaxy's most boring space station, little do they know that Kady Grant and the Hypatia are headed right toward Heimdall, carrying news of the Kerenza invasion.
When an elite BeiTech strike team invades the station, Hanna and Nik are thrown together to defend their home. But alien predators are picking off the station residents one by one, and a malfunction in the station's wormhole means the space-time continuum might be ripped in two before dinner. Soon Hanna and Nik aren't just fighting for their own survival; the fate of everyone on the Hypatia--and possibly the known universe--is in their hands.
But relax. They've totally got this. They hope.
Once again told through a compelling dossier of emails, IMs, classified files, transcripts, and schematics, Gemina raises the stakes of the Illuminae Files, hurling readers into an enthralling new story that will leave them breathless.

Bokomslag och beskrivning hämtad från Adlibris.
Efter att läst Illuminae två gånger såg jag framemot att läsa vidare i serien. Visste redan från början att det skulle vara två andra huvudkaraktärer i denna så jag blev inte så förvirrad över att läsa ur/om två andras synvinklar. Jag ska nog säga att jag gillade denna mycket mera än första delen så nu ser jag framemot att läsa sista delen. Hoppas den kommer att vara lika spännande som de två första och förhoppningsvis ett par nya lika intressanta karaktärer som de två första delarna har innehållit. Och sättet den är skriven på är verkligen intressant och gör att man inte tröttnar på den, den enda lilla nackdelen är att ibland måste man både vända och vrida på boken för att kunna läsa den.
Jag räknar in denna bok i Kaosutmaningen som #1 - en bok med blått omslag.
