About the Book
Picking up where Aurora Rising left off, Aurora Burning finds the misfit heroes of Squad 312 facing their toughest challenge yet. An ancient, galaxy-consuming evil is stirring, and only this ragtag crew of discipline cases and outcasts stands in its way. But before they can save the universe, they must survive smaller, equally dangerous distractions: a ruthless faction of the GIA hunting Auri, and the unexpected return of Kal's estranged sister, backed by a Syldrathi army with no interest in a happy family reunion. Told with the authors' signature blend of banter, heart-stopping action and emotional depth, the novel weaves together bank heists, mysterious gifts, awkward romance and explosive battles as the fate of the Aurora Legion's most beloved heroes hangs in the balance. Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff build on the world established in the opening book, deepening the Aurora Legion's mythology while giving each member of Squad 312 room to shine. Fans of character-driven science fiction will appreciate how the story balances galaxy-wide stakes with personal struggles, humour and genuine peril. As a bridge to the trilogy's conclusion, Aurora Burning raises the tension significantly, leaving readers eager for the next chapter. This brand-new paperback is the ideal way to continue the series or introduce new readers to one of modern YA sci-fi's most acclaimed sagas.
