Now Rho must embark on a high-stakes journey through an all-new set of Houses, where she discovers that there’s much more to her Galaxy–and to herself–than she could have ever imagined Then, unwelcome nightmare that he is, Ochus appears to Rho, bearing a cryptic message that leaves her with no choice but to fight.

Black Moon is definitely a win for me.Wandering Star by Romina Russell – a ReviewĪmazon / Barnes & Noble / Kobo / BAM / The Book Depository The author has me hooked quite thoroughly. I can’t fathom how any of this is possible, which is awesome. And I see that happening as this series progresses.įew book series have made me feel so invested in the story – a sign of a true work of art in my eyes. It’s like the saying goes, things will get worse before the get better. I am left pleasantly devastated like the book nerd I am after reading Black Moon and need to read the next book as soon as possible. Tomorrow – the next book, Thirteen Rising, is so uncertain that I have no idea what will happen next. I feared for Rho and her friends and allies. Tension and danger keep mounting and there were several times I wanted the book to end because I was so afraid of what the outcome could be. Goodness, you learn so much more in Black Moon and it’s almost disorienting (in a good way). I’m glad as was wrong on that theory and pleasantly surprised by what the true answer was. Something I began to suspect in last book is answered in this book.

Once again I am in awe of Romina Russell’s ability to weave a story, craft a whole new world, and devise a plot so intricate and fascinating. This series just keeps getting better and better! The plot thickens and the stakes raise higher than I thought possible. Trust is fragile.Īnd the choices made now could possibly decide the fate of the Zodiac.
