I LOVE sci-fi, especially hard sci-fi in space, and Empress of a Thousand Skies just sounds like my kind of book! And I don’t know how many times I looked at that beautiful cover without realizing there’s a girl’s profile in the moon! Such a cool cover. Luckily we don’t have long to wait for this book!!

February 1, 2017 at 9:03 pmI recently read this one. I love science fiction and thought this one would be the perfect book for me. I didn’t hate it but I didn’t love it, sadly. It was a little underwhelming for me, given all the hype. BUT. I hope you enjoy this book when you get a chance to read it!
Have a great week, Andrea. =)
