The pace is super quick, and I'll be honest, at times I found myself a little lost.Įven though that's the case, it always came back around for me and I had a lot of fun reading it.įor me though, this wasn't quite as enjoyable a story as the first book, in that it lacked a bit of the humor that I always felt when following, Min, the protagonist of Dragon Pearl. Sebin is such a cinnamon roll, who is easy to become attached to. This story is full of action and a ton of heart. His current whereabouts are unknown.Īs Sebin heads off to their orientation, they decide that no matter what, they'll find the truth, hopefully clearing Uncle Hwan's name and returning honor to their clan in the process.Īs you may expect, however, things do not go as planned for sweet Sebin. In this installment we follow a young tiger spirit, Sebin, who dreams of joining the Thousand Worlds Space Forces just like their Uncle Hwan, who they greatly admire.īut on the day that Sebin's acceptance letter arrives, another letter arrives as well and the news it brings is not good.Īccording to this letter, their Uncle Hwan abandoned his duty in search of the legendary Dragon Pearl and has thusly been branded a traitor. I was so happy when I heard the news that we would be getting more in this world best described as a Space Opera inspired by Korean mythology.

At the time when I read it, I thought it was a standalone. The first book, Dragon Pearl, was released in 2019 and was my favorite Middle Grade release of that year.

This series is published through the Rick Riordan Presents imprint. Tiger Honor is the second book in the Thousand Worlds series by veteran Sci-Fi writer, Yoon Ha Lee. When Sebin is suddenly accused of collaborating with the enemy, the cadet realizes that Min is the most dangerous foe of all. It's up to Sebin, three other cadets, and Yi and Min to determine who is sabotaging the battlecruiser. Sebin finds this highly unusual, but soon all protocol is forgotten when there's an explosion on the ship, the crew is knocked out, and the communication system goes down. Yi informs Sebin that they must immediately report to the ship Haetae and await further instructions. As soon as Sebin arrives for orientation, they are met by a special investigator named Yi and his assistant, a girl named Min. Sebin hopes to help clear their hero's name and restore honour to the clan.

Apparently, the captain abandoned his duty to steal a magical artifact, the Dragon Pearl, and his whereabouts are still unknown. But when Sebin's acceptance letter finally arrives, it's accompanied by the shocking news that Hwan has been declared a traitor.

Sebin, a young tiger spirit from the Juhwang Clan, wants nothing more than to join the Thousand World Space Forces and, like their Uncle Hwan, captain a battle cruiser someday.
