If you are interested in reading my review of that first book, you can find it here. Although this is a spoiler free review, there will however, be spoilers for the previous book in the series, Zodiac. Wandering Star is the second book in the Zodiac series by Romina Russell. “Our choices define us: The stars may set us on a given path, but it is we who must decide whether we take it.” Now Rho must embark on a high-stakes journey through an all-new set of Houses, where she discovers that there’s much more to her Galaxy–and to herself–than she could have ever imagined. Then, unwelcome nightmare that he is, Ochus appears to Rho, bearing a cryptic message that leaves her with no choice but to fight. Orphaned, disgraced, and stripped of her title, Rho is ready to live life quietly, as an aid worker in the Cancrian refugee camp on House Capricorn.īut news has spread that the Marad–an unbalanced terrorist group determined to overturn harmony in the Galaxy–could strike any House at any moment.
