review 1: I thought the ending of the Worldshaker was it but it was good that it did and that Liberator was created. It starts off with the attack of a saboteur and the power control within the Filthies. I am not much of a fan of stories like this and I got bored at it and I feel like I was dragging myself again like in the first book about the happenings in this story, though there is one part of the story that got me interested. Right now, I just figured out that the entire story for me was like a roller coaster ride for children, its slow but their are parts of it that are exhilarating to experience. Sadly, I cannot imagine much of what was happening in the story especially on parts where automation is concerned. In the story, I was amused that the Upper Class people were given a... more name in the second installment: Swanks. I would also like to note about the attitude of Sephaltina and her spoiled bratiness, I kinda reminds me of well me. But I wouldn't go over drive like her, just sayin. Mr. Gibber was a really really really weird character but nonetheless prove his significance in the story. I thought Lye's cruelty was that she was jealous of Riff because Col is in love with Riff and not her. I was so wrong. But I was right in some accusations I had of her. The character that I really liked was Antrobus (In my ad I keep saying Astrobus XD) and how he really made an impact in the story by not saying a single word to uttering a complete and comprehensive sentence that even I was left to stutter. I would have like Septimus to express more of his love toward Gillabeth because I am a sucker for romance. Col and Riff's relationship was stronger than ever and I was happy that everything went well.Just a side remark:the names of the characters were very hard, specially the Swanks's, to remember and pronounce unlike the names of the Filthies.This may come as a shock (to me) because when the ending came, it was so heartfelt that made this book a three stars and not two.I would suggest this to people wanting action and not much the lovy dovy stuff.
review 2: The class struggle is upon us! The Filthies, the slave underclass of the Juggernaut Worldshaker, overthrew the ship's aristocracy and instituted a Revolutionary council on the renamed "Liberator." All is not well as tyrants arise and manipulate the new government to their own ends. Col & Riff return for a new adventure in this alternate-history tale of 19th century colonialism (and really big machines!) less
