15% in- up to ch5. Pleased that I read book one fairly recently as we’re plunged straight back into things.
Only managed some of the first quarter in July (a bit before, but it’s easier to count pages read in August if I take it from around the end of part one). Really liked book one but this has felt slow to start. Hoping it will pick up.
I’m hoping to start somewhere this week, but I’m on a holiday so I’m not sure if I’ll have the time! Sorry I’m so late
Second quarter. Things have picked up a little. Tende meeting with the boss, and they offer news he wasn’t expecting. Was surprised to see Ava involved in whatever is happening. Why didn’t her thread alert Io to this?
Finished. Review on home page. This picked up considerably in the closing stages but it felt like a real slog to get to this stage. A bit of a frustrating read if I’m being honest.



It’s been five weeks since Io left Alante to follow the golden thread, and she’s no closer to finding the god on the other end. She spends her days in constant, grueling travel and her nights worrying over the fate-thread she shares with Edei—which seems to be fraying. Making matters worse, she and Bianca soon realize that their only lead has shaken them off, snapped the golden thread, and disappeared.
But not before Io gathers some crucial clues. Her investigation leads her to a new mystery, a rash of sibling disappearances across the Wastelands that seems to be connected to the murders in Alante. And all signs point to Nanzy, the golden city, as the center of the whole conspiracy.
As Io and Bianca make their way to Nanzy, they make powerful enemies, find allies new and old, and uncover a horrifying plot that traces back centuries. The more Io learns, the more she begins to suspect that the future of the world may truly rest on her shoulders. But she will have to determine how much of the future is her choice—and how much is simply her fate.
