So aspects of this book kept me both more interested than the first but also more annoyed. First, I think the side characters get a bit more fleshy in this, which was nice to see. I felt a bit less confused about certain aspects of the world and how the school works which was helpful in understanding everything.

What I didn't like was the whole savior complex addition to the MC and how unlimited Mary Sue she started to feel, whereas Orion felt a bit more realistic this time around. I still don't think this series is outrageously good by any means, but I will still finish it because I'm interested to see the outside world.
