It was a fun read with some really good moments. While I liked the background, the current events in the book felt a bit too forced. I also wanted to learn a lot more about the kaiju and their world.

Still, it was very entertaining and after having read a lot of trilogies and series in the past, it was refreshing to read a stand-alone book.

Unlike the previous book which just interested me, I really enjoyed reading this book. The story was much better and the ending very satisfying.

Selten habe ich mich beim Lesen eines Buches so sehr aufgeregt wie bei diesem Buch. Allerdings in keinster Weise über die Autoren, sondern über den Inhalt bzw. die darin aufgezeigten Aktivitäten gegen den Klima- und Umweltschutz.

Ich kann es daher nur empfehlen, um mehr über die Verstrickungen von Kapitalismus und Rassismus insbesondere im Hinblick auf die Aktivitäten um die drohenden Veränderungen für die eigenen Zwecke auszunutzen.

Most of the book I was wondering what the ending will look like since there still seemed so much to do. Although it didn’t leave me quite satisfied, it was better than I had expected.

Es hat mir an einigen Stellen die Augen geöffnet, wie andere mit ihrer Zeit umgehen und auch was es bedeutet, wie ich mit meiner eigenen Zeit umgehe. Vor allem aber zeigt das Buch, wie rücksichtslos mit Care-Arbeit in unserer kapitalistischen und patriarchalischen Gesellschaft umgegangen wird.

Either I’m getting kind of tired of Brandon Sanderson’s writing style or this book in particular didn’t resonate well with me. It wasn’t boring and the story was interesting enough, it just felt kind of annoying at times.

I must admit that it’s been around ten years since I read the first Mistborn trilogy and while the fourth book in this series worked quite well as a standalone, this one was having a lot more references that I no longer understood. I wish there had been more explanations for those than endless repetitions of how pushing, pulling and metalminds worked.

Of course, as usual, the ending was very well written and made up for a lot of the shortcomings.
