Riven has fought for a hard-won peace in her world, and has come to shaky terms with who and what she is—a human with cyborg DNA. Now that the rightful ruler of Neospes has been reinstated, Riven is on the hunt for her father in the Otherworld to bring him to justice for his crimes against her people.
But when she receives an unwelcome visit from two former allies, she knows that trouble is brewing once again in Neospes. The army has been decimated and there are precious few left to fight this mysterious new threat.
To muster a first line of defense, her people need help from the one person Riven loathes most: her father. But what he wants in return is her complete surrender.
And now Riven must choose: save Neospes or save herself.
This exciting sequel to The Almost Girl combines science, action, and romance in a compelling, hard-to-put-down package.

This book was so good!!! This is called the Riven Chronicles but this book has a very good summed up ending. So I'm not sure where more books would come into play. I really would like to see another book though. Maybe one where they are bringing their world back.
This book opens a year after The Almost Girl ends. Riven is on the tail of her father. And things aren't looking very good. I really didn't like Riven in the first few pages of this book. She seemed like a loose cannon and well kinda like a nasty person. But she becomes her old self a few more chapters in.
Everyone in this is pretty much the same as book one. We do get some new faces and a lot of new surprises. Lots of twists and people being traitors esp one that I just didn't see coming. One major twist was about a new city that pops up in their dead world. That was a big shocker!!!
This book has us staying in their decimated world. We really don't spend much time in the other world. If you loved book one you will devour this one! I know I did!
If you love this blend of Syfy and Dystopian then def pick this one up!
