C.J. Darlington's Reviews > Helios

This series is really growing on me. I enjoyed Book 1, but Helios is even better. I love that the authors (and that's pretty cool--N.J. Tanger is actually a collaboration of three authors, I think) took their time to world-build this series in a way that adds depth I don't often see in these sort of stories. There is time given to the motivations of the characters. We truly understand their psyche by the book's end. But don't get me wrong. The pace moves well too. I grew to enjoy these characters and the unique situation in which they find themselves. Plus it was nice to read a story in which the romance was either nonexistant or mild. Yes, a few characters feel attraction, but it's in a normal way and doesn't overwhelm. I went ahead and bought Book 3 right after finishing! Some language and violence, but nothing too graphic.
