(note to Veronica Roth: PLEASE do not make this a trilogy! Two is fine! An unresolved political drama is perfectly okay to leave hanging. Let me just say that I hate Isae Benesit and will never like her. The plot twists were all super effective and the hard-hitting moments were pretty intense. I was hesitant about the Lazmet death retcon, but it was done really well and added a lot to the story. The themes were great in this, and the pacing was also great. I got my more planets wish and got some awesome visuals along the way (Ogra is my dream aesthetic) The lives of Cyra Noavek and Akos Kereseth are ruled by their fates, spoken by the oracles at their births. We got to see so much more through them than just through Akos and Cyra, and it was greatly appreciated. In the second book of the Carve the Mark duology, globally bestselling Divergent author Veronica Roth reveals how Cyra and Akos fulfill their fates.The Fates Divide is a richly imagined tale of hope and resilience told in four stunning perspectives. The inclusion of Eijeh and Cisi's perspectives really added a lot to the story and the world. I had some mixed feelings about the first book, but I entirely loved this one! It was so good! Asteroids, stars, planets, the current stream space debris, ships, fragmented moons, undiscovered worlds this was a place of endless possibility and unfathomable freedom. Space was not a finite container, but that didn't mean it was empty.
