The second book in the Kronos Chronicles wasn’t quite as good as the first. The Celestial Globe had all of our favorite characters but for most of the book they were split off from each other. Well, not exactly. It was Petra and Astrophil and Dee in England and Neel and Tomik together… in several places. Which was interesting, very interesting, but it took too long to bring the whole gang together. Or maybe it was that once they were all together, the story moved too quickly and we didn’t get to see the relationships of the three kids together.
It looks like the next book will remedy that, though…
