Godslayers—Zoe Hana Mikuta's high-octane dystopian sequel to Gearbreakers—is perfect for fans of Pacific Rim, Pierce Brown's Red Rising Saga, and Marie Lu's Legend series.
The only way to kill a god is from the inside...

The Gearbreakers struck a devastating blow against Godolia on Heavensday, but the cost of victory has been steep. Months later, the few rebels who've managed to escape the tyrannical empire's bloody retribution have fled to the mountains, hunted by the last Zenith—Godolia's only surviving leader.
Eris has been held prisoner since the attack on the capital city, which almost killed her. And she begins to wish it had when she discovers Sona—the girl she loves, the girl she would tear down cities for—also survived, only to be captured and corrupted by the Zenith. The cybernetic brainwashing that Sona has forcibly undergone now has her believing herself a loyal soldier for Godolia, and Eris' mortal enemy.
With the rebellion shattered and Godolia moving forward with an insidious plan to begin inducting Badlands children into a new Windup Pilot program, the odds have never been more stacked against the Gearbreakers. Their last hope for victory will depend on whether Eris and Sona can somehow find their way back to each other from opposite sides of a war...

      Gr 8 Up-In Gearbreakers we learned that victory has a steep cost; this follow-up begins after the devastation of Heavensday with Eris still imprisoned and Sona alive but barely the girl Eris loves. The Gearbreakers had nearly succeeded, but with a Zenith still pushing Godolia into executing its Windup Pilot Program and our main characters back on opposite sides of the war. The narrative mirroring of the first book one raises the stakes rather than feel repetitive, and the tight worldbuilding keeps readers hooked as our heroines work to find their way back to each other. Mikuta plays with tropes throughout the series and executes her action sequences to great effect, but some readers may find the pacing of this one heavy on battle scenes. VERDICT This mecha dystopian has a diverse, witty cast; a worthy purchase for libraries that own Gearbreakers.
