Marcellus thought he had escaped from under his grandfather’s clutches but was quickly sent back into the life he fled to try and topple his grandfather from the inside. Aloutte just wants to know more about her past and that investigation exposes her to people who want to use these hidden secrets. Chatine is serving time on a prison moon and hopes to eventually leave the reality that has become her life. After a failed attempt to break Citizen Rousseau out of prison, Marcellus, Aloutte, and Chatine are thrown into the middle of a war they are not ready for. Will these three be able to overthrow the powers of Laterre? What is with the legend of a secret and dangerous weapon?
Between Burning Worlds is the second book in the System Divine series. This sci-fi adventure may be long in pages, but the story is so engrossing readers will find that they can’t put the book down. Even when I wasn’t able to give the book time, I found myself thinking about the characters and what was going to happen next. My biggest concern, though, is the fact that Amazon and Goodreads don’t have a third book listed. When I finished this wonderful story, I went online to investigate. Brody’s website says it is a trilogy. THANK YOU! This is a great book and I will be waiting for the third book to get a title and release date.

What a squel! It's just as good as the first book, Sky Without Stars. This is a nice hefty book and features the 3 POV. Chatine, Marcellus, and Allouette fight to stop the General. The find out his ultimate plan and they make new and unexpected allies along the way.
Chatine was able to escape Bastille and ends up with a group that are more like mercenaries. They have escaped Latarre and stay out of the politics. They stay neutral and don't pick either side, but as mercenaries, they will take on jobs for pay.
Alouette sets out to find more about her mother and runs into touble. She finds out why her mother faked Alouette's death.
Marecllus, now labeled as a trailor, tries to figure out what the weapon is grandfather is trying to build. He finds out the General has been working with their rival planet, Albion, to build the weapon.
Albion has adapted to the First World English where Laterre has French influence. I love the world building, it's very intricate and unique. Reading this book is like watching a movie to me. The story is well written with an expanding plot. There are new allies as well as a new defactor group that has a different goal than the Vanguarde. Fantastic read and I highly recommend it. I can't wait for the 3rd book!
