Even titans can bleed.
Iro and Emil have opened their first Gates, unlocked new talents, and proved the fleet’s Hoppers aren’t stalled. Despite leaving the rank of trainee, they find their training is just beginning.
Thrown into a new squad with an explosive Mage, a cursed Surveyor, and a Vanguard with shady motives, Iro and Emil will delve deeper into the titan than ever before. There are bizarre things in the depths; pitch black oceans, nests of swarming monsters, and Spires that rip through the hull of the titan.
But what purpose do the Spires serve and can Iro and Emil reach the top in time?
Spire Climbers by Rob J. Hayes was definitely an improvement over book one.
While I enjoy the quick and easy progression fantasy stories every so often, with Hayes I just have higher expectations than just a exchangeable, if fun read.
And this second book definitely improved on the character depth and dialogue! Yes. It’s still easy to read and full of action, but there’s just more “voice” to it, so it feels more engaging to me.
This time I was unable to put the book down, and was always looking forward to explore more of the Titan, and see how the characters would get out of tricky situations.
I also really liked seeing the team of misfits starting to actually grow together and become a unit, instead of each trying to do their own thing. Friendship and banter are always a strong draw for me!
I breezed through this in no time at all.
