Moon, once a solitary wanderer, has become consort to Jade, sister queen of the Indigo Cloud court. Together, they travel with their people on a pair of flying ships in hopes of finding a new home for their colony. Moon finally feels like he’s found a tribe where he belongs. But when the travelers reach the ancestral home of Indigo Cloud, shrouded within the trunk of a mountain-sized tree, they discover a blight infecting its core. Nearby they find the remains of the invaders who may be responsible, as well as evidence of a devastating theft. This discovery sends Moon and the hunters of Indigo Cloud on a quest for the heartstone of the tree - a quest that will lead them far away, across the Serpent Sea.

In this followup to The Cloud Roads, Martha Wells returns with a world-spanning odyssey, a mystery that only provokes more questions and the adventure of a lifetime.

Fantasy at Its Best

Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on May 22, 2016

Great follow-up to the Cloud Roads, both in terms of character development and more fantastical settings and premises.
I hope Wells keeps writing about Indigo Cloud after Harbour of the Sun comes out as I could happily read these books for decades.
I must be on my 6th time rereading this series and I love it every time.

Fantastic follow up to the Cloud Roads

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on July 16, 2017

This is the second book in the Raksura series and it does not fail to delight.

Having helped his new colony migrate back to their ancestral home in the heart of Raksura territory, they are greeted with terrible news.

Something is wrong with their tree.

So off Moon goes on yet another un-consortlike adventure (honestly, Moon, won't you just stay at home and focus on making babies and looking pretty like a *normal* consort? Spoiler: Nope!) to save their tree-home and ends up in one of the more bizarre places in the Three Worlds. Adventures ensue.

I finished the last book in the series recently, and looking back at the series as a whole, one of the things I think I most enjoyed about this book was the insight it gives into why Moon was initially treated with such hostility as a "feral solitary" as well as some insights into Moon's psyche. Despite the danger to their new home, this book, in the larger scheme of the series, is sort of a breather for Moon and the reader. We get to see him find his place and learn more about the court without the presence of the Fell as a distraction.

There's still adventure and action, but overall I'd rate this as one of the calmer books in the series. This doesn't diminish it in any way - it's certainly not a filler book - and I highly recommend it along with all other books in this series.

Trade Paperback... weird printing

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 1, 2020

Verified Purchase

I love this series (four stars for the series-- great world building, interesting characters/character development), and after borrowing it from the library, I wanted my own copies. In every single book except this one in the series, the print is appropriately-sized for the size of the book. I even reordered the book to see if it was a single printing error since it's print on demand (as noted in the back cover), but both copies have mass market-sized printing in a trade paperback-sized book. I didn't see anyone else mention this, but if this is just my error, it's now happened twice. Just be aware. It bothers me more than I'd like it to.

I'm very attached to Moon, the main character, and the worldbuilding is excellent.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 29, 2020

This is the second book in the Books of the Raksura series, picking up shortly after book one, "The Cloud Roads." As before, the setting is fascinating: an invented fantasy world with multiple intelligent species. As before, the writing is skillful and intelligent. As before, I found Moon, the main character, sympathetic. I have become very attached to Moon, and am also fond of several of the supporting characters, most notably Stone and Chime and the three fledglings (Frost, Thorn, and Bitter). The worldbuilding is excellent. I can't remember the last time I've read a fantasy novel that evokes civilizations that are so credible yet distinct from human civilizations. Plus the eponymous sea serpent is very striking.

Highly recommended, but with three caveats: 1) begin with the first book, "The Cloud Roads," rather than jumping in here, 2) it took me a chapter or so to warm up to that first book, 3) if you've read Wells's excellent Murderbot stories and are searching for something similar, this is quite different, though there were a handful of moments when Moon's wry thoughts reminded me of Murderbot.

About my reviews: I try to review every book I read, including those that I don't end up enjoying. The reviews are not scholarly, but just indicate my reaction as a reader, reading being my addiction. I am miserly with 5-star reviews; 4 stars means I liked a book very much; 3 stars means I liked it; 2 stars means I didn't like it (though often the 2-star books are very popular with other readers and/or are by authors whose other work I've loved).
