Chapter By Chapter features me reading one chapter of the selected book at the time and reviewing it as if I were reviewing an episode of a TV show or an issue of a comic. There will be spoilers if you haven’t read to the point I have, and if you’ve read further I ask that you don’t spoil anything further into the book. Think of it as read-along book club.

In the previous chapter we didn’t so much meet the Shimada family as learn a bit about them through characters you’d only know through other ancillary media, as in not the comics and novels before it. So we just have the Starchildren left to be introduced to. Meanwhile Nova wants to check into Zand’s theories about Dana, whatever they were. Even a crazy man can get something right I guess.
I did a quick skim of the chapter because I’m really wondering how long it’s going to take for Colonel Wolff to get here. It won’t be this chapter so I’m curious what’s going to happen. Is it more worldbuiding, more plot development, or both? All I know for sure is that we’re spending more time with Dana, so let’s read on and find out.
