I'm currently behind on reviews, so don't be surprised if the recent reviews are a bit sparse.

Seven Surrenders

Cover of Seven Surrenders.

The second volume is a bit less on the 18th century France presumptiousness spree (but adds in some more Greek history to make up for it). Very wow, including how Jehovah/JEDD and Bridger meet, Bridger’s choice, the Major’s identity and so many little things we learn about Mycroft (โ™ฅ), the hives, and individuals. Also, Utopians forever.
