Only an incredibly skilled author could do this successfully, and Karen Osborne has officially climbed that mountain. The fact that this is a boon to the story as opposed to a detriment is a nod to Osborneās writing. It is just something that I, as a writer, would never have considered. There is a reason for that, and in my opinion it absolutely makes sense. It is just that the reader does not follow her around. ![]() Ash is still a player in book 2 in fact, she continues to play a really important role. Crazy like a fox (I think I used that saying wrong, but you get the picture). This series in and of itself is complex, and then to make this kind of change is crazy to me. I find this switch to be absolutely fascinating, due to the difficulty level. In Architects, Ash is the main and the reader experiences everything from her point of view whereas, in Engines Natalie is the main protagonist. The first thing I think it is important to point out is that this book changes main character points of view from the first. It just as dark and mysterious as Architects of Memory (the first installment in the series, check out that review here), but with even more twists and a deeper look into the alien technology the series is based on. Engines of Oblivion is the second and final installment in The Memory War duology by Karen Osborne, and I was even more impressed with this one than I was the first. ![]()
