6/10, after reading a not so good sci-fi book I decided to read this and I was hoping to enjoy this more than the last one but alas it was no better since I found some issues when I first read this and I doubt that I would pick this one up again; I only just realised that this is book two in a duology so I must read the first to clear up some things. It starts off with the main character Ash and some other characters I don't even know anything about, even their names I forgot and she is back at the Library at the End of the Universe awaiting her next mission. That was to go to a planet whose name I don't remember anymore and get some artefact and I'm not even sure how it went, the next three missions are basically the same as the first one and you don't need me to tell you what happened but at least two missions had an interesting twist. One of the objectives was to get something probably to preserve it in the Library at the End of the Universe but the twist was that the planet was going to blow up soon and kill the civilisation living on it which was quite saddening since they couldn't do a thing to stop it and in the end Ash completes her final mission but a huge space battle got in the way but at this point I was so sick and tired of the book I was glad it ended. What a shame.… (meer)
