Story
Jade, the mysterious and magical substance once exclusive to the Green Bone warriors of Kekon, is now coveted throughout the world. Everyone wants access to the supernatural abilities it provides, from traditional forces such as governments, mercenaries, and criminal kingpins, to modern players, including doctors, athletes, and movie studios. As the struggle over the control of jade grows ever larger and more deadly, the Kaul family, and the ancient ways of the Kekonese Green Bones, will never be the same.

Story
In the holy city of Tova, the winter solstice is usually a time for celebration and renewal, but this year it coincides with a solar eclipse, a rare celestial even proscribed by the Sun Priest as an unbalancing of the world. Meanwhile, a ship launches from a distant city bound for Tova and set to arrive on the solstice. The captain of the ship, Xiala, is a disgraced Teek whose song can calm the waters around her as easily as it can warp a man’s mind. Her ship carries one passenger.

Story
Tamsyn Muir’s Gideon the Ninth unveils a solar system of swordplay, cut-throat politics, and lesbian necromancers. Her characters leap out of the audio, as skillfully animated as arcane revenants. The result is a heart-pounding epic science fantasy. Brought up by unfriendly, ossifying nuns, ancient retainers, and countless skeletons, Gideon is ready to abandon a life of servitude and an afterlife as a reanimated corpse.

It's been centuries since the robots of Panga gained self-awareness and laid down their tools; centuries since they wandered, en masse, into the wilderness, never to be seen again; centuries since they faded into myth and urban legend. One day, the life of a tea monk is upended by the arrival of a robot, there to honor the old promise of checking in. The robot cannot go back until the question of "what do people need?" is answered. But the answer to that question depends on who you ask, and how.

With no water, no air, and no native life, the planet Gora is unremarkable. The only thing it has going for it is a chance proximity to more popular worlds, making it a decent stopover for ships traveling between the wormholes that keep the Galactic Commons connected. If deep space is a highway, Gora is just your average truck stop. The Five-Hop is run by an enterprising alien and her sometimes helpful child, who work hard to provide a little piece of home to everyone passing through.

Banks' Culture novels. The main character is a deadly security droid that has bucked its restrictive programming and is balanced between contemplative self-discovery and an idle instinct to kill all humans.

Astrid has reclaimed her name and her voice and now seeks to bring down the Sisterhood from within. Throwing herself into the lioness’ den, Astrid must confront and challenge the aunts who run the Gean religious institution, but she quickly discovers that the business of politics is far deadlier than she ever expected.
Meanwhile, on an outlaw colony station deep in space, Hiro val Akira seeks to bring a dangerous ally into the rebellion. Whispers of a digital woman fuel Hiro’s search, but they are not the only person looking for this link to the mysterious race of Synthetics.
Lito sol Lucious continues to grow into his role as a lead revolutionary and is tasked with rescuing an Aster operative from deep within an Icarii prison. With danger around every corner, Lito, his partner, Ofiera, and the newly freed operative must flee in order to keep dangerous secrets out of enemy hands.
Back on Venus, Lito’s sister, Lucinia, must carry on after her brother’s disappearance and accusation of treason by Icarii authorities. Despite being under the thumb of Souji val Akira, Lucinia manages to keep her nose clean...that is until an Aster revolutionary shows up with news about her brother’s fate and an opportunity to join the fight.
This captivating, spellbinding second installment to the First Sister series picks up right where The First Sister left off and is a must-hear for science-fiction fans everywhere.

Narrators detract from the story
I really enjoyed The First Sister book and thought the world was rich and well-developed. Those elements certainly carried over to this book but I found myself feeling lost for the first hour or two because the scope of this book is larger. I probably should have reread the final chapters of The First Sister to refresh my memory of where we left the characters.
I agree with some other reviewers about problematic narrators. I hate it when characters pronounce basic words differently and was really distracted by the narrator for Luce. The character’s first language is Spanish, but the narrator’s Spanish pronunciation was laughably bad.
Ultimately, I got over my issues with the narrators and listened to the full story in just a few days. It was a lot of fun and a good follow-up to the first book in the series!

great story
when I read the reviews for this before purchasing I saw all the comments on the narration and from previous times I sort of dismissed it as overreaction since I've seen that before on other books. I'm am sorry to those reviewers, you were right the different pronunciations is grating. I hope in the third book maybe all the narrator could be given a guide on how to pronounce the words the same way maybe? It really pulls you out of the story for a bit which is unfortunate because the story is excellent. It's been a long time since a story has made me outwardly react to plot twists! looking forward to the third installment!

Absolutely Awful
The first book was.....alright. Not good, but at least it found its rhythm towards the end. The characters grew a bit and stopped whining and agonizing. This book slams the breaks and falls right back into "woe betide unto me" territory.
The prose is inelegant, the setting tedious, and I couldnt give a damn about any of it by the halfway point.
The narrators are universally terrible as well.
zero stars.
