It has been a couple of years since I read the first in the Divided Worlds trilogy - Disconnect - and Disassemble picks up where it left off. Initially I struggled to remember some of the plot - particularly the politics - but the speed and compelling nature of Disassemble didn't give me time to worry about it.

The writing and plot were much clearer than in the first book of the series, and I struggled to put this one down. Full of non-stop action, Disassemble tells the tale of Zachery and Rosa and the continuing fight between their worlds, both Over and Under, in the research base Galilei, which orbits Europa, one of Jupiter's moons. Their romance deepens, while the disarray in the base becomes more chaotic, peaking at the end. At the same time a shocking event and discovery for Zachery occurs, so shocking I had to immediately start the third book Disrupt to find out more.

Imran Siddiq's unique way of describing actions and events gives his writing a distinct style, and heightens the pace. His is able to create intriguing sci-fi worlds that draw a reader in. I can't wait to read the rest of Disrupt and see how this trilogy ends. ( )
