The Illuminae Files 2. Gemina: The Illuminae Files
Autor Amie Kaufman, Jay Kristoffen Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 ian 2018 – vârsta de la 14 ani
Moving to a space station at the edge of the galaxy was always going to be the death of Hanna s social life. Nobody said it might actually get her killed.
The sci-fi saga that began with the breakout bestseller "Illuminae" continues on board the Jump Station "Heimdall, " where two new characters will confront the next wave of the BeiTech assault.
Hanna is the station captain s pampered daughter; Nik the reluctant member of a notorious crime family. But while the pair are struggling with the realities of life aboard the galaxy's most boring space station, little do they know that Kady Grant and the "Hypatia" are headed right toward "Heimdall," carrying news of the Kerenza invasion.
When an elite BeiTech strike team invades the station, Hanna and Nik are thrown together to defend their home. But alien predators are picking off the station residents one by one, and a malfunction in the station's wormhole means the space-time continuum might be ripped in two before dinner. Soon Hanna and Nik aren t just fighting for their own survival; the fate of everyone on the "Hypatia" and possibly the known universe is in their hands.
But relax. They've totally got this. They hope.
Once again told through a compelling dossier of emails, IMs, classified files, transcripts, and schematics, "Gemina "raises the stakes of the Illuminae Files, hurling readers into an enthralling new story that will leave them breathless.

Recenzii de la cititorii Books Express
Ina Fabian a dat nota:
Reading the second book in this series was so much easier than the first time. Although the action started really quick and it had more adventure than the first book, I still had some issues regarding the love triangle :D (it’s one of the things that I dislike the most in a book). That’s why I had to lower my rating for this book a little bit. Other than that, the story had so many characters that it made the action even more interesting. I also appreciated the ‘The Hunger Games’ vibes, one of the strongest points of this book. Again, the transcripts, the handmade drawings, the journals, are perfect for the SF genre and the AI point of view I still think is one of the best things I have read so far.
