Publisher Description
Everything ends at Beacon. Everything falls. Now Tersias and Mally have a chance to change that—if they can survive. Part II of the Beacon Saga.
What should be wondrous news has rocked the fleet, sparking suspicion and acts of desperation. Against a backdrop of escalating tension in the orbital layers, Mally contends with the growing jealousy of a barren people, while Tersias helps Shiplord Nastron assemble a special crew—from some of Beacon's most infamous aliens. But soon, terrible choices will be made in the name of preserving the peace, and a young family will find themselves torn from each other.
A serial installment of twelve thousand words, more than twice the length of Part I. Continue the Saga in Part III (fourteen thousand words).

Excellent follow-up
This is an excellent sequel to the first. It picks up right where the first ended and takes you through the next logical sequence of the story.
With this release it's easy to see that each release will likely be the next "scene" in the story (for lack of a better description). In other words, a serial format.
As I stated in my review of part 1, I do not like the short story format. But I've also never got into the serial format (for reading). So far, I'm really enjoying it with this story. The sudden end to a story that I want to continue isn't there like with the short story, but each part of the story is enough to satisfy until the next is released.
