Karigan challenged every idea he held about women and instead of feeling defensive, he got over them. He was meant to be Karigan’s love interest and at first I didn’t much care for him. Arhys was a little monster I don’t think she had any redeeming qualities. There were a host of new characters some of the more notable among them were the Professor Josston, Mirriam, Lorine and Luke. Despite all that she has gone through, she doesn’t spend time feeling sorry for herself, she gets back to work. Sure there were still other POVs but they were few and relatively brief. In Mirror Sight, Karigan was the main character, front and center.

For the last few books, there were so many character POVs that Karigan’s was getting lost amidst all the noise. She is also not one to mope, which is always a welcome trait.

She is very matter-of-fact and prefers to get down to business as soon as possible. She is a very compelling heroine and a very likeable one. Karigan is the primary reason I read this series. I was very relieved when Karigan finally made her way back. There were times when I grew tired of her time in this future world but the characters she encountered were interesting enough that I didn’t mind reading about them.

The climax was frenzied and it instilled in me, as the reader, Karigan’s almost feverish race to get back to her own time. Like the previous Green Rider books, this one too progresses at its own easy going pace before bursting into a frenetic and crazed pace near the end. Mirror Sight was an enjoyable read but I found myself getting very impatient for Karigan to get back to her own time. This future world had very strong steampunk influences and it would have been very jarring for me had I not read a few reviews going in. This new world is a bleak one where even the air one breathes is tainted. In its place, there now exists an Empire, which is ruled with an iron fist. Karigan finds herself in a world much changed. An archaeologist takes in Karigan and they soon become allies. After smashing the mirror mask, Karigan and Lhean are transported 200 years into the future. Mirror Sight starts from where Blackveil left off. I read a few non-spoilery reviews before I started reading Mirror Sight and I think that they helped me enjoy this book as much as I did because I was prepared for what happened in it. I have thoroughly enjoyed the Green Rider series and though they could get trying at times. Aurora Burning (Aurora Cycle #02) by Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff Review.
