Messages From The Unseen World #2
The Story And The Teller
It has been six years since the events in Everywhere But No Place.
Jinzy and Cobalt are still up and running. Tweed, the Host, was unable to shut them down. Now the whole prison network is on the verge of collapse as they run riot and their power grows exponentially.
Haze is asked go back to the World created by the Host, to try and remedy the disaster that he unwittingly instigated all those years ago.
However, there are other forces at play, powerful characters with their own motives and desires. Haze is soon caught up in a life and death struggle deep inside a machine whose mind is failing and whose creations are close to destroying the burgeoning colony of artificial intelligence.
But there is more at stake than just Haze’s life - and the others trapped inside the Hosts’s mind. Jinzy is on the threshold of a break-through, something that could possibly change the fate of mankind if he is successful.
The Host has been a storyteller his whole life, but the question Haze must answer is; at what point does the story itself take over; and what ultimately has more power, the story, or the teller.

I enjoyed 1st book in this series very much. It was set in a very interesting world and I was immersed into the story from the first to the last page. Suffice to say - I was expecting the same from the 2nd book as well. Unfortunatelly, it just didn't deliver. I felt like plot was unimaginitive, and huge potential of the world where the book is set was never properly utilised. I am sorry to say - but I won't be investing my time into the 3rd book.
