Ilima Todd was born and raised on the north shore of Oahu and dives for octopus with her dad every time she visits—otherwise she’s diving into books in the Rocky Mountains where she lives with her husband and four children. She graduated from BYU with a degree in physics and eats copious amounts of raw fish and avocados without regret. But mostly she loves being a wife and mama and wouldn’t trade that job for anything in the world.
Kirby Heyborne is an American musician and actor. After graduating from the University of Utah with a degree in economics, he received critical acclaim for his starring role in the award-winning World War II drama Saints and Soldiers. He has starred in many feature films and national commercials, and has appeared on Everwood and Free Ride. He is well known for his narration and voice work on several audiobooks. In addition, he can frequently be found touring the country with his singing and songwriting act.
I can't decide how I want to rate this one, so I'll settle at a nice middle-of-the-road three stars.

Een spannend vervolg op Remake. Heel tof om vanuit een ander perspectief te lezen, terwijl bekende personages terugkeren in het verhaal. Tegen het einde start de storm pas echt, en dan is het spijtig dat het boek met zo'n grote cliffhanger eindigt. Er wordt voortdurend ergens naartoe gewerkt, maar h......more
Oh how I adore Ilima's writing! She draws you right into this sequel that doesn't disappoint or suffer from what I call "second book syndrome". I often find the second book in a trilogy to be pretty lacking. They often lack character development, true story archs, or much action as they are the cent......more
I was given an ARC in return for an honest review. Also, I keep things vague so that I don't give anything away. No spoilers. You're welcome. I’ve been waiting for this book since I finished the last page of “Remake.” Theron, my poor Theron. Ilima Todd certainly knows how to stick her characters......more
“In this sequel to Remake, Todd writes a cinematically drawn, well-paced story set in the South Pacific…Speculative fiction with a ‘family values’ spin.” Kirkus Reviews
