After the traumatic events of the War for Phang, Hazel, her parents, and their surviving companions embark on a life-changing adventure at the westernmost edge of the universe.
Oh my goodness, this book. After the way that volume 7 ended, I couldn’t wait to get my hands on volume 8. I waited seemingly forever for my hold to come in from the library. Coincidentally, it came in while I was 950 miles from home and I was just crossing my fingers that it would still be waiting for me when I got back. It was.
When I first picked it up, I wasn’t sure that I’d like it. It opens in a bit of a… controversial manner, which shouldn’t surprise me, since this is Saga, after all. But it did. But everything is explained and everything makes sense, especially given (again!) that heartbreaking ending of volume 7.
Overall, I don’t know that I liked this volume as much as I’ve liked the others in the series, but it was still very good. I requested that my library purchase volume 9, so hopefully I’ll be able to read it soon. But, then again, after reading some reviews of it on Goodreads, I’m not sure that I’m prepared for the heartbreak (or the year-long hiatus) that will follow.

I may have slammed vol 9 shut at the end. The heartbreak was real. When I found out about the hiatus I was in a bad mood for the rest of the day! I’m angry, but I have to respect their creative process. Hopefully, it’s worth the wait.

I’m so scared for vol. 9! And I’m sad about having to wait so long for the next volume, but I think it’ll be worth it.

I do! I read the first couple volumes through hoopla. I really want to read the physical copy though, and my library ordered it for me. Hopefully it’ll come in soon! I’m so nervous, though!! All I hear about it is heartbreak!
