Reclaiming Shilo Snow picks up right where Sofi Snow left off. The chapters are once again told from multiple points of view, mainly Sofi, Miguel and Sofi’s mother Inola.

The majority of the story is taking place with the Delon’s and still trying to figure out what their angle is with Earth, and why they are so focused on Sofi and Shilo. This time there are a few flashbacks too before the Delons showed up and what life was like for Sofi and Shilo, we also get a better understanding as to why Inola did what she did both for her children and for the people of Earth.

There were a few parts in the book that did confuse me, but as it went on it made a lot more sense as to what was going on and why things happened the way that they did. Since the Delons are so focused and interested in Sofi and her hacker skills, which were very cool, and made me jealous of Sofi.

Without getting too involved with spoliers, I will say there were a few scenes in the book that made me think of The Matrix series. Outside of the “I know Kung-Fu” line, I don’t know if the author meant to use similarities to the movie, but even if she didn’t I found it easy to visualize what was going on.

The ending of this book hurt, the sacrifices that were made, the people that were betrayed, the truth finally coming to light, it was a great way to end the story. Even knowing that things will not fix themselves over night I liked how things were paced out to wrap up the every end of the book, and that prologue ending was not was I was expecting. Now saying that I do hope at some point there will be a novella or short story about the family at the end of the book.

This duology is such an amazing read, when I read The Evaporation of Sofi Snow I could not shut up about it for weeks, and I’m pretty much at that point now with Shilo. The two books are great fast reads, if you are into hi-tech hacker/gamer type stories with a dash of alien interaction. Grab both of them.
