I
was intrigued by the writing and the storytelling. I stayed up late
one night, when I couldn’t really afford it.
Technically, this is a duology. The reality is that it was one long book that he just randomly cut in two and called it a duology. This just ended, abruptly. No resolution, no closure, nothing. I was so pissed off that I was on the edge of just abandoning the next book and sending Carey to hell. Yes, you heard that right. I have that power. I have chosen to be merciful and let him live though.
I will also be reading the next book, hopefully enjoy it, mark it 1star and also label Carey as an author to avoid. Authors who don’t know how to actually write individual books within a series, even a duology, are trash in my eyes.

From the Publisher
Infinity
is only the beginning.
The Pandominion: a political and trading
alliance of a million worlds - except that they're really just the
one world, Earth, in many different realities. And when an AI threat
arises that could destroy everything the Pandominion has built,
they'll eradicate it by whatever means necessary, no matter the cost
to human life.
Scientist Hadiz Tambuwal is looking for a
solution to her own Earth's environmental collapse when she stumbles
across the secret of inter-dimensional travel. It could save everyone
on her dying planet, but now she's walked into the middle of a war on
a scale she never dreamed of.
And she needs to choose a side
before it kills her.
