FUELED BY LIES.
RULED BY CHAOS.
ALMOST HOME.
Amy and Elder have finally left the oppressive walls of the spaceship Godspeed behind. They’re ready to start life afresh—to build a home—on Centauri-Earth, the planet that Amy has traveled 25 trillion miles across the universe to experience.
But this new Earth isn’t the paradise Amy had been hoping for. There are giant pterodactyl-like birds, purple flowers with mind-numbing toxins, and mysterious, unexplained ruins that hold more secrets than their stone walls first let on. The biggest secret of all? Godspeed‘s former passengers aren’t alone on this planet. And if they’re going to stay, they’ll have to fight.
Amy and Elder must race to discover who—or what—else is out there if they are to have any hope of saving their struggling colony and building a future together. They will have to look inward to the very core of what makes them human on this, their most harrowing journey yet. Because if the colony collapses? Then everything they have sacrificed—friends, family, life on Earth—will have been for nothing.

Summary
Reviewer Name : mkircher I absolutely loved the first two, \"Across the Universe\" novels, and couldn't wait for the third to arrive! Amy and Elder, finally get off the Godspeed in this book and all of the frozens are thawed, including Amy's parents. You lose a bit of the tension that's present in the first two books simply because everyone is off the spaceship. However, they soon start dying horrific deaths by the mysterious inhabitants of the new planet, and there's a different sort of worry happening. It's less about keeping things a secret and more about surviving. Overall, it was a great book and Revis wrapped up the story and characters well. I'm glad to see Amy and Elder figure out the secret to the new planet and how their relationship will move forward into the future.
