The battle with the Iron Legion has left The Last Horizon battered and broken, drifting in space. Varic needs an exceptional Engineer to fix his ship, and there’s only one person for the job: Mell, the master Aether Technician.
But first, they have to break her out of prison.
Mell has been captured by the Advocates, a group of super-powered vigilantes who dominate their corner of the galaxy. They are led by Starhammer, an invincible champion with a personal obsession with Mell.
The Last Horizon may be crewed by the greatest heroes in the galaxy, but even they have to be careful with Starhammer. Every time he survives a battle, he grows stronger.
In another life, Varic saw the end of that road. If he lets Starhammer become too powerful, the galaxy is doomed.

A few lulls, but otherwise pretty fun. I'm looking forward to the next book.
Travis Baldree makes this an easy audiobook choice.
More of the same from last book. Kind of like the Invincible/The Boys, which I really like.
This series has been such a fun followup to Cradle so far. It's not quite uh ‘literature' and even less so than Cradle but it knows exactly what it is and has a blast with it. I liked that this book had a more compelling villain than the first one, but it does make me question if the gang is fighting Superman in book 2 where do you go from here. The future villains that have been setup I'm not feeling too confident on. I do wish there was a stronger focus on character development and relationships between the crew, I think that would really elevate it but I get its hard to juggle that with an ensemble cast.
